Marié Digby Videos

Marié Digby's got folky croon that could serve as the perfect soundtrack for a dream.

Her sophomore album, Breathing Underwater, is ethereal and smoky in all the right ways. She's got a lot of heart, but at the same time, she knows how to carry a big pop hook.

Marié opened up her iTunes and gave ARTISTdirect.com an exclusive look at what she's spinning. Check out her playlist below!

Marié Digby's Playlist:

1. Lupe Fiasco — "Shining Down"

Right now I'm really into Lupe Fiasco. He's got this new song called "Shining Down." He's such a smart lyricist and he's very fresh. I really appreciate everything he does.

2. Jay-Z — "D.O.A. (Death of Auto-Tune)"

I've been listening to "Death of Auto-Tune" by Jay-Z. He and Lupe have been in constant rotation. I love Jay-Z too. I admire rap artists who are unique and fresh and they don't rap about the things that everyone else raps about. I like those two rappers a lot!

3. Phoenix — Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix

I'm listening to the new Phoenix album. The song "Fences" is great. They're able to take these chords that shouldn't normally work in a pop song and put the perfect melody on top of them. I love the vocalist. I've been a fan for a long time, and they're fantastic. I'm upset because I was doing a TV show in this little tiny building in Japan a few weeks ago and they were next door literally 20 feet away doing a show on the same side of this building. I really wanted to introduce myself, but I didn't have the courage to do it [Laughs].

4. Imogen Heap

I'm obsessed Imogen Heap's new album Ellipse. I'm obsessed with it. I think it's epic. I look up to her a lot. She does almost everything by herself. She's independent. She mixes, writes, produces and plays just about everything on her albums. No one can do what she does.
