Jodie Marie Warlow (born 12 June 1991) is a Welsh singer-songwriter better known by her stage name, Jodie Marie. She was signed to Decca Records in 2010. Jodie Marie's 2012 debut album Mountain Echo has been described by The Guardian as 'velvety and bittersweet' and The Independent as 'having a light-blues and jazz-folk-edge recalling late-1960s singer-songwriters such as Carole King.
When she was 16, Jodie Marie was spotted by the father of a music industry manager from Transgressive Records, an independent record label based in London, who was visiting Pembrokeshire on holiday. Shortly after, Marie found herself with a manager and began writing songs with former Suede guitarist Bernard Butler and singer songwriter Ed Harcourt.
Born in Narberth, Pembrokeshire, Jodie Marie grew up listening to singers such as Bonnie Raitt, BB King, Eric Clapton, Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix and says her parents, John and Denise Warlow, have been a huge influence, as well as support from her friends and family, including her elder sister Nikki. Jodie Marie started performing at local gigs at the age of seven. She began writing her own material when she was in her early teens.
Jodie Marie's track I Got You appears on the compilation double album You Raise Me Up 2012 released on the Decca label on 5 March 2012.
Jodie Marie supported British singer-songwriter and actor Will Young on his 2011 UK tour.
Singer Jonathan Jeremiah was supported by Jodie Marie on 17 October 2011 on his European tour, which included concerts in the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, Luxembourg and Switzerland.
