Marie Mørck | My One And Only Love | June 27, 2025
Rising Danish jazz vocalist Marie Mørck steps away from her own writing and dives into American Songbook repertoire with My One and Only Love — a collection of deeply personal reinterpretations of classic standards, set for release on June 27, 2025, via Zack’s MUSIC.
Best known for her captivating voice and modern take on traditional jazz, Mørck has earned growing acclaim in Denmark and beyond, including a Danish Music Award nomination for her debut and international critical acclaim for her 2023 album Songs to Comfort.
While her past releases have showcased her talent as a songwriter, this new project offers something different: a heartfelt tribute to the quintessential songs that have shaped her musical identity.
“Music has always been a mirror of life, capturing its joys, sorrows, and everything in between. As a jazz singer, I’ve explored these emotions through my own original work, but with this special album, I turn to the timeless beauty of jazz standards – songs that have carried messages of love, hope, and resilience for generations.”
The album’s six-tracks was recorded in fall 2024 at MillFactory Studios in Copenhagen with a trusted trio of collaborators — Magnus Hjorth (piano), Snorre Kirk (drums), and Lasse Mørck (double bass). Mørck’s quartet has developed a rich chemistry through years of live performance, and that closeness is felt throughout this recording. The result is an intimate, emotionally layered collection that highlights Mørck’s ability to bring subtle nuance and fresh energy to the jazz canon.
With My One and Only Love, Marie Mørck opens a new chapter — not through reinvention, but through reverence, warmth, and unmistakable artistic voice. It’s a loving tribute to the classics, told with the grace and clarity of a vocalist whose star continues to rise.
“These songs have been my companions,” says Mørck. “Through them, I want to offer a moment of connection — an invitation to pause, reflect, and enjoy the enduring beauty of these stories and melodies.”
