The track is full of energy and peaks with contrasting melodies and mesmerising guitar solos showcasing the band’s distinctive style and creativity.

Marseille are a five-piece band hailing from Derbyshire, UK. Formed in 2021, the band showcases a unique blend of musical talent and creativity between them.

Over the last three years, the band have released an array of hit singles including ‘Forget It All’, ‘Only Just Begun’ ‘Thinker’, and ‘This Dream Of Mine’. Toured around the UK and honoured some of the UK’s biggest festival stages such as Ynot and The Isle Of Wight.

Marseille began 2024 by being named one of This Feeling’s “Big in 2024” acts. Their first single of 2024 ‘Monkey In The Middle’ was a huge hit, receiving critical acclaim and support from John Kennedy on Radio X, BBC Radio Introducing and featured on the British football-based talk show Soccer AM. With gigs, festivals, and tours already booked throughout the year and the release of ‘Godiva’ their second EP in September 2024 is set to be a huge year for the band.

‘She Can Fly’ is the second single from ‘Godivia’ written by frontman Will Brown. The track symbolises a love song that begins with gentle strumming guitars and delicate vocals which set a tender tone painting a picture of love’s gentle embrace. Slowly the crashing drums and loud distorted guitars join the mix symbolising the tumultuous nature of love’s journey. The track is full of energy and peaks with contrasting melodies and mesmerising guitar solos showcasing the band’s distinctive style and creativity.

When asked where the inspiration for the track came from Will said “She Can Fly was bizarrely written so effortlessly for a song that’s so euphoric. The chorus came to me when singing over some inversions on my guitar and the rest wrote itself. It’s a song about being visited by a girl with similar qualities to an angel’.
