UK singer-songwriter Marsha Swanson taps into raw emotion and ethereal beauty with her new single, “Like an Angel.” Reimagined from a ghost track on her acclaimed album Near Life Experience, the song arrives now with a mesmerizing music video directed by longtime collaborator and award-winning filmmaker Sam Chegini and it’s pure soul medicine.
Recorded live at Echo Zoo Studios, the refreshed version brings a full band and string section into the mix, with producer Henry (King Thumb) Thomas shaping a sound that's intimate, lush, and timeless. Swanson’s voice glides over delicate guitar work, organic percussion, and sweeping keys, delivering a performance that's equal parts fragile and fearless.
Chegini’s visuals match the track's emotional heft, blending dreamy animation with symbolic storytelling. It’s a stunning companion piece that elevates "Like an Angel" into a full-bodied reflection on love, loss, and spiritual connection.
Fans of Kate Bush and Tori Amos will feel an instant connection to Swanson’s progressive pop aesthetic, where emotive storytelling meets intricate musicality. Speaking about the track, Swanson shares: “I wanted it to serve as an honouring or ode to those no longer with us, whose philosophy or approach to life continues to influence and guide us in the present.”
With “Like an Angel,” Swanson continues to prove she’s an essential voice in progressive pop, delivering music that not only resonates but lingers.
