From the leafy lanes of the South Coast to the big skies of festival fields, Marie Dance & The Purple Shoes bring a heartfelt mix of folk-rock, Americana soul and pure live fire. Fronted by Brighton songwriter and vocalist Marie Dance, the band turn every stage into a story — rich, real and irresistibly human. Their sound blends the grit of Americana with UK folk roots and 70s dream-pop shimmer, hailed as “haunting vocals and cracking stage presence.”

Fresh from playing Black Deer Festival 2024 — including a live guest spot on Black Deer Radio with Neil Fox — and performing across multiple Small World Festival stages through spring and summer 2025, the band’s festival credentials are proven and growing fast. Their albums Small Town Fairy Tales and January Sun have won praise for their warmth, honesty and lyrical heart. Based in Shoreham-by-Sea, they channel “small town stories, big-hearted sound.” Expect soaring choruses, raw connection and unforgettable festival moments.

Marie Dance and The Purple Shoes are now booking more festivals performances and music venues across the UK to line up with the release of their new and 5th album in the summer of 2026
