Scarlet Mae are a Dutch band playing pop music with a touch of jazz and folk, around singer, songwriter and pianist Marije van Rijn. Her music has a light and lively feel, she can easily switch from modest to exuberant, playing a catchy chorus that sticks in the back of your mind all day. A four song EP, released in 2011, gave Scarlet Mae an impressive start in the Dutch music scene. They played at festivals such as Eurosonic/Noorderslag and Hollands biggest free festival Appelpop. They supported Jonny Lang at Paradiso Main Hall in Amsterdam. Also they got national airplay. In May 2013 they did a succesfull tour in the UK. Highlight was their show at Europe's biggest showcase festival The Great Escape. Scarlet Mae started a crowdfunding action to finance their debut album, which was released December 2013. For the album, Marije worked together with pianist Daan Herweg (a.o. Caro Emerald) and guitarist Paul Willemsen (a.o. Ruben Hein, Beans and Fatback). Paul also produced the album.
