Marike Jager is a well-known Dutch singer-songwriter and music artist. While backpacking through Australia as a teenager, she learned to play the guitar and gained experiences that would fuel her creative work for years to come.
A weaver of stories, Marike Jager is inspired by The Beatles, Fiona Apple, Beck and Tim Burton. She writes her songs on guitar, piano and a handmade music box and stands out with playful, adventurous and melodic finds. She has been nominated for multiple Edison Awards, was the guitarist in a Sam Smith video and worked with Grammy winner Tchad Blake (Tom Waits, Sheryl Crow, Crowded House) in the mixing of her records. She collaborated with hip-hop dancer Shailesh Bahoran for ‘Nederlandse Dansdagen’, surprised with the experimental duo 'M ft. M' (with drummer Martijn Bosman) and wrote a mesmerizing duet with Canadian songwriter Ron Sexsmith.
“Right on the money, it’s a wonderful piece of work” (Tchad Blake, USA)
“It was inspiring to share the stage with you” (Feist, CA)
“Marike Jager is an asset to pop music” (Volkskrant, NL)
“Exciting musical dynamics.” (Goddeau, BE)
