Etoile Marley's latest single 'Selenophile' takes listeners on an immersive journey of self-discovery, through the story of a woman who transforms into a werewolf under the full moon.


The track serves as a metaphor for embracing one's wild and darker traits, reframing them as personal strengths. Featuring eerie synths, husky vocal harmonies, and whimsical circus-inspired elements like the xylophone and organ, Marley blends her cinematic funky sound with a dreamy, surreal atmosphere.


Born from her eclectic past, Marley’s unique sound reflects her previous career as a circus performer, dancer, and actress. Her explorative spirit extends into her music, often defying easy categorization, instead characterized by a moody, sensual groove with cinematic flourishes. 'Selenophile' was recorded in her home studio just outside of London, where she now balances her artistic career with motherhood.


With 'Selenophile', Marley draws on her love of obscure words and personal transformation, creating a song that invites listeners to reflect on the power of self-acceptance. This track is part of the B-side of her she-wolf concept album, LOUVE, a testament to her ability to fuse personal narrative with artistic expression.
