Bonjour mes petits papillons! 🦋 To celebrate Natio Bonjour mes petits papillons! 🦋
To celebrate National Butterfly Day, I’m sharing ‘Papillon’. The original song, Butterfly, was recorded in 2014 — but the French version has a little extra ….uh….je ne sais quoi. You can now stream it everywhere. 
Papillon is about feeling like a butterfly with paper wings: fragile, yet brave enough to fly.
The English lyrics were translated into French by the wonderful @faylovsky 
Watch the video on YouTube, filmed on Schiermonnikoog.
Concerts:
15/3 Beuningen
26/3 Nijmegen

It wasn’t the guitar. It wasn’t the microphones ei It wasn’t the guitar. It wasn’t the microphones either. It just wasn’t my day. You know that feeling? You plan a recording day, prepare everything well, you’re not dealing with a cold, your guitar is in tune, you press “record” … and it just doesn’t work out.
I used to really stress about that. Feel pressure, self-punishment. Now it’s okay — I just try again another day. Just peel some potatoes, go for a run, or play a game with the kids.
Long story short: yes! A new album is coming! I just don’t know exactly when yet ;) x
I’ve been pretty into @timburton lately. This song I’ve been pretty into @timburton lately. This song — “Sally’s Song” (written by @dannyelfman for The Nightmare Before Christmas) — is so beautiful! I’m considering recording it.… yes/no? X

Dear all. Here’s a snippet from the video I made ( Dear all. Here’s a snippet from the video I made (had fun!) for my new song ‘Pussy Willow’. The song is based on Tim Burton’s poem ‘The Girl Who Turned Into a Bed’. It tells the story of a girl who picks some pussy willow and turns into a bed. Enjoy, full version via link in bio. M

New music! ‘Pussy Willow’ is based on Tim Burton’s New music! ‘Pussy Willow’ is based on Tim Burton’s poem ‘The Girl Who Turned Into a Bed’. It tells the story of an outcast girl who picks some pussy willow and turns into a bed. I love how Burton’s work evokes tragedy and humor at the same time, and it inspired me to write a song for the girl. The music box instantly felt like the perfect match. We’ve added sounds of the Juno-60 and mellotron to take you to the upside down.... 
This song is the first of more to come.
Mixed by @pwwillemsen 
Music box: Marike Jager
Juno 60 & mellotron: Henk Jan Heuvelink
Music card arranged & hole-punched by Henk Jan Heuvelink

“Marike, could you write a song for Wereldlichtjes “Marike, could you write a song for Wereldlichtjesdag (Worldwide Candle Lighting)?” A song to commemorate children who have gone too soon. I immediately felt that I had to say yes. It was the most honorable and challenging request I had ever received.
On December 14th at 7 p.m., candles are lit all around the world in memory of children who have passed away. This creates a virtual 24-hour wave of light as it moves from one time zone to the next—such a beautiful and impressive way to feel connected.
This is me rehearsing on my musicbox. I am still polishing the song. On Dec 14th I will perform it in the @stevenskerknijmegen, where families will gather to remember.

Hello from Lombok, Indonesia! I am still traveling Hello from Lombok, Indonesia! I am still traveling with my family. We’ve left Australia and are now enjoying the last weeks of our exciting trip. We meet so many locals, so many smiles and such great kindness. 💚 We stay with families and make friends. We play music, learn about ceremonies, community life and religion. We visit a vanilla farm, we clean trash from rivers and illegal dump sites, we walk through rice fields, play with kites and so much more. No words, we are all filled with joy and love. Thankful. X

I have to share this! (with a big smile on my face I have to share this! (with a big smile on my face). I’m tattooed on the back of a sparkling Canadian woman named Guylaine. Whuuuut?!? Here’s why;
My family and I are currently traveling the world and recently spent a few nights in the middle of nowhere in Northern Thailand with just a few fellow travelers. We hit it off right away. I met Guylaine and we had some great conversations. One night I spontaneously grabbed my music box and guitar and sang a few songs in a small jungle hut for the perfect international crowd. Guylaine loved it and called me a “fairy”. Just a week later she sent me this photo. She wanted to commemorate an amazing night by getting a tattoo of the “fairy and the music box”. Can you believe it? I am overwhelmed, honored, still blushing. Will never forget 💚 Thanks G. X
