Renewed. That is the best way to describe Sharon Marley’s energy as she brings new music, new collaborations and new vibes to the table with her new album, Firebird.

“The title itself, Firebird, is about rising up from the ashes, being reborn and taking the opportunity to start afresh. At this stage in my life, I am reborn … not Christian-wise … but every day you wake up, you are re-born, so I have that track as my new focus,” Marley explained in a recent interview with The Sunday Gleaner.

Inspired by her beloved mother, Rita, Marley explained that the guiding light is what motivated her to tap into a refreshed love frequency. “My mother is my guiding post. I gave her the completed album with the album cover for Mother’s Day. So, for me, it felt like my mission was fulfilled in terms of having the album done and presenting it to her. So, I give thanks that I was able to fulfil that because anything could have happened,” she shared.
