Spotlight: MARINA

The GRAMMY Museum is thrilled to welcome MARINA to the Museum’s intimate 200-seat Clive Davis Theater for an evening discussing her latest album, PRINCESS OF POWER, her career, creative process, and more with Producer CJ Baran. There will be a special performance.

MARINA returns transformed on PRINCESS OF POWER—a euphoric, high-energy exploration of healing, empowerment, and self-reclamation. Written during a period of deep personal reflection, the album marks a turning point for the platinum-selling artist. Where 2021’s Ancient Dreams in a Modern Land looked outward at a fractured world, PRINCESS OF POWER turns inward, embracing vulnerability as strength, turning pain into power and the radical optimism of love.

Written entirely by MARINA—with longtime collaborator CJ Baran co-writing and producing a number of tracks—the album marks her first release as an independent artist through her own label, Queenie Records (in partnership with BMG). PRINCESS OF POWER debuted at #7 on the UK Albums Chart and has since surpassed 150 million global streams, making it one of her most successful and creatively liberated chapters to date.

The album pulses with disco-lit electro pop and lyrical declarations of freedom, feminine energy, and love. Tracks like “BUTTERFLY,” “C★NTISSIMO,” “CUPID’S GIRL,” and the luminous new single “I <3 YOU” reflect a woman reborn and thriving on her own terms.

MARINA recently announced her North American PRINCESS OF POWER Tour, kicking off this fall, where fans will get to experience the new era live for the first time since her 2022 headline run.

Since bursting onto the scene in 2009, MARINA has released five acclaimed albums including Electra Heart (2012), which debuted at Number 1 on the UK’s Official Charts; FROOT (2015); Love + Fear (2019), which debuted Top 5 in the UK and Top 10 on the U.S. Albums chart; and Ancient Dreams in a Modern Land (2021), which featured the Ivor Novello-nominated hit “Man’s World.”

With PRINCESS OF POWER, MARINA isn’t just making music — she’s building a future rooted in authenticity, creativity, and courage. It’s MARINA as you’ve never seen her, yet never more herself.
