Nice to meet you!

I’m Mary Ember (the creative English translation for Marije Veenstra) and I am ready for the next step. It’s my ambition to make music as much as possible, with and for as many people (and other organisms) as I can. Just like a campfire brings people together, it’s my mission to create a warm atmosphere where you feel understood and connected. 

As for the creative process: I play piano, guitar, and sing. After the EP I will record an album and in the meantime, I focus on producing my own music as well.

Besides music, I work in the field of international biodiversity policy. When I’m not engaged in that or making music, you find me bouldering, rock-climbing, journaling or reading /listening to non-fiction.
