Marie Ulven Ringheim (born 16 February 1999) is a Norwegian singer-songwriter and record producer, known for her indie pop project girl in red (stylised in all lowercase). Her first EPs Chapter 1 (2018) and Chapter 2 (2019) were recorded in her bedroom and feature songs about romance and mental health. Released independently through AWAL, her debut studio album If I Could Make It Go Quiet (2021) was a critical and commercial success, and won three Norwegian Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year. She then signed to Columbia Records and released her first major-label album, I'm Doing It Again Baby!, to moderate success in 2024.
girl in red has been cited as a queer icon by Paper,[2] and "one of the most astute and exciting singer-songwriters working in the world of guitar music" by The New York Times.[3] She has sold over five million certified digital units in the United States according to the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).[4] She was awarded the Telenor Culture Prize in 2022 for her "artistic distinctiveness and explicit messages of boundless love".[5]
