Marie Conniffe is an Irish singer-songwriter from Dunboyne, Co. Meath. She has spent much of her adult life wandering the planet, singing for anybody who will listen. Travelling alongside her trusty “Hummingbird” guitar, Marie has lived and worked in places like South Korea, Vietnam, Spain, New Zealand, Bristol, Galway, London and Dublin, but she has been a resident of Cork city for more than four years now and she says she has no intentions of going anywhere anytime soon :)
Along the way, Marie has recorded and released two albums of original material, as well as a number of stand-alone singles. Her songs incorporate themes of love, adventure, magic, nature, the beauty of human relationships, the sadness that comes from loss, and the power of words.
She recently completed the Foundation Diploma in Songwriting at BIMM in Dublin and is busy putting all her new-found knowledge into practice.
“If love slips out of your hand Don't fall into Despair Keep searching Fight to find it Until you reach Him, see Him, Don't sleep, don't eat, don't relax.” - Sufi Rumi "Love Madness"
