EVENT DESCRIPTION
Originally from Vevey, Switzerland, Maryne is an artist guided by a sensitive and unpretentious approach. After several years of releasing songs in English, she reached an artistic turning point in 2025 by singing in French for the first time. With De Haut, her words gained both depth and clarity, resonating strongly with audiences and climbing into the Top 50 of radio airplay in Switzerland as well as the Top 20 in French-speaking Switzerland.
A recognized songwriter, she notably co-wrote Sister, Germany’s finalist song for the Eurovision Song Contest 2019, and has collaborated with artists and producers such as Mosimann, Damien N-Drix, and Feder. Having been invited to perform on major stages such as the Montreux Jazz Festival, Maryne is currently preparing her first album, Tiré d’une histoire vraie (“Based on a True Story”), scheduled for release in October 2026.
In Hong Kong, she will present an intimate guitar-and-vocals concert, a true musical interlude marked by emotion and closeness. Blending original compositions with covers of great Francophone classics, Maryne invites audiences to rediscover the richness of French, but also Swiss music in a cozy and warm setting.
The evening will open with a performance by the choir of the Lycée Français International, before Maryne is joined by Hong Kong musician Alwin Leung. This artistic encounter embodies a vibrant cultural dialogue at the crossroads of the Swiss and Hong Kong music scenes, promising a unique musical moment and an invitation to drift toward sweet horizons.
This concert is part of the Francophonie Festival 2026.
