Decca signs Marisha Wallace
By Andy Malt | Published on Monday 28 September 2020
Universal’s Decca has signed musical theatre performer Marish Wallace to a new global record deal. This follows the success of her independently released cover of ‘Tomorrow’ from the musical ‘Annie’, put out in aid of the Broadway Cares and Make A Difference Trust charities.
“I am so THRILLED to be a part of the legacy of Decca Records”, says Wallace. “I keep pinching myself because this is just a dream come true. My first album coming out during this turbulent time in history is a symbol of hope for all of us”.
“At the beginning of lockdown the theatres were closed and I thought it was the end, but now I know it was just the beginning of something wonderful”, she goes on. “To share a label with icons like Shirley Bassey and Ella Fitzgerald I truly feel right at home. I can’t wait to help bring some healing and hope to our world. Because the sun will come out tomorrow!”
Decca MD Tom Lewis adds: “Marisha is a born star. Her voice has the most extraordinary power. She is a brilliantly charismatic woman on a soul mission and whenever she sings, she makes your heart race. You feel every word. We can’t wait for the world to hear”.
Wallace recently recorded her debut album with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.
