Life
Mariama Jalloh was born in Sierra Leone, Freetown but at the age of one she moves to Germany, Bergisch Gladbach, the home of her mother. At sixteen, she begins to write her own songs which she sings to the sounds of her acoustic guitar. Two years later, she gains her first stage experiences by performing in a musical.
Music career
Her first important career steps are all centered on the projects of Adé Bantu: Brothers Keepers, Afrobeat Academy and Afropean Express. Starting in 2008, she works with the rapper Curse, thereby taking part in the project "Diversidad European Urban Experience". A year later she supports Max Herre on his tour for the album "Ein Geschenkter Tag". In the same year she embarks on her solo career by releasing her first EP "Listen To Mariama". Mariama was chosen from over 300 bands as one of the nine talents who were supported by the Volkswagen Sound Foundation in 2009. In 2010 she signs with the French label Cinq7 / Wagram Music and starts working on her first album "The Easy Way Out". However, the debut is finally recorded at RAK Studios, London, where she works with the production team Bacon & Quarmby, which has already produced with Ziggy Marley and Finley Quaye among other artists.
