“There’s a common myth in the music industry that if you haven’t “made it” by a certain age, your window has closed. Denise Marsa isn’t just breaking that window; she’s shattering it and dancing on the glass. In a sea of generic pop, Denise Marsa stands out because she’s authentic. She’s proof that it’s never too late to find a new rhythm, and that “pop with purpose” is exactly what the world needs to hear.” - ArtistRack Reviews

DENISE MARSA RELEASES “PERFECT (UNTIL DAWN NEON REMIX)” ON WORLD MENTAL HEALTH DAY
Nine consecutive UK Top 10s. One deeply personal new track about self-worth, emotional damage and knowing when to let go.
NEW YORK, NY — September 28, 2026 — Independent singer-songwriter, producer and performer Denise Marsa returns October 10 with “Perfect Until Dawn (Neon Remix),” her latest release from the forthcoming RISK + HEAL project — arriving on World Mental Health Day.
Following nine consecutive UK Top 10s on the Music Week Commercial Pop Club/Dance charts, Marsa turns inward with “Perfect,” a relationship song about the lasting impact of being made to feel that you are never good enough.
The song begins in a relationship that has reached an emotional breaking point:
“You’re tired and scared / I’m tired and lonely.”
Marsa then asks the question at the center of the song:
“Did they cut you off?
Did they make you feel less than perfect?
Did they dim your light
’til you forgot you were worth it?”
But “Perfect” isn't a simple story of one person hurting and another person saving them. It explores the more complicated reality of loving someone whose emotional baggage has become part of the relationship — and realizing that compassion doesn't mean losing yourself.
At its core, “Perfect” challenges the idea that perfection is something we should spend our lives chasing. The Until Dawn (Neon Remix) brings Marsa's emotionally direct songwriting into a modern dance/pop setting, creating an unexpected contrast: a track about vulnerability and emotional wounds that still moves forward with energy.
The song was written in early July of this year and for Marsa, it’s literally right off the writing block. The message is ultimately about self-worth, boundaries and healing and recognizing that sometimes the first step toward a healthier relationship is understanding that neither person can keep living inside the damage of the past.
The release continues Marsa's Pop with Purpose approach: music that delivers a message without sacrificing melody, emotion or the dance floor.
Marsa has built her career independently across decades as a singer-songwriter, producer, performer and founder of KeyMedia Group. Her musical journey includes international chart success as a vocalist and songwriter and, more recently, an extraordinary run of nine consecutive UK Top 10s as an independent recording artist.
“Perfect (Until Dawn Neon Remix)” continues that momentum while opening another chapter in Marsa's RISK + HEAL story one where vulnerability isn't weakness, experience isn't a limitation, and there is no expiration date on creating your next chapter.

Denise Marsa's remarkable journey from UK chart success as a vocalist to nine consecutive UK Top 10s and the remarkable team behind her.
FROM THE VOICE BEHIND THE HIT TO THE WRITER BEHIND THE SONG
Denise Marsa's remarkable journey from UK chart success as a vocalist to nine consecutive UK Top 10s and the remarkable team behind her
NEW YORK, NY — August 26, 2026 — At a time when the music industry continues to focus on how young artists are when they break through, Denise Marsa offers a different question: What happens when an artist's most sustained run of success comes much later in life? Fueled by her creativity, tenacity, unmistakable voice, and distinctive brand of indie pop songwriting, her success is amplified through her ongoing creative partnerships. Marsa is proving that women artists do not have a shelf life when it comes to creating, evolving and breaking through. The other question: Is Denise Marsa Making Rock and Roll history?
Beginning in May of 2024, Marsa began an extraordinary run of UK chart success, ultimately delivering nine consecutive Top 10s on the UK Music Week Commercial Pop Dance Chart with songs she wrote and recorded herself. On August 12, the team found out they had achieved their highest position yet in the Top 10 with Ever Die (Until Dawn Remix), their best placement yet. No small accomplishment, and Marsa’s gratitude is pouring out. This is more than just another chart milestone. It represents the fulfillment of a promise she made to herself decades earlier.
Marsa’s current run has been fueled by creative partnerships with Lautstumm Studios (PIVOTAL) in Germany, British guitarist Paul A. Harvey (RISK + HEAL), and UK remixer Jim Sullivan, aka Until Dawn. His remixes have helped bring Marsa's emotionally direct songwriting into the international dance space, alongside the promotional work of Craig Jones of Eurosolution. The combination has created an unexpected but powerful intersection: deeply personal songwriting meeting the dance floor.
Marsa’s songwriting catalog has been administered by BMG, sponsored by VP Kristina Munoz, out of their Los Angeles offices since 2016. They have been instrumental in supporting her recordings and looking after her interests.
Marsa began her music career with a hit song she sang on but did not write. She never forgot what that felt like. And somewhere along the way, she made herself a promise: “One day, I will have a hit with a song I write and sing myself.”
Marsa was developing something else: her voice as a songwriter and her ability as a publicist for both others and herself. Decades followed in which she continued writing, recording and producing while working in the PR industry, and building a career as an artist, songwriter, producer and owner of her own label. She started the label KeyMedia Group in 1998 and continued creating music on her own terms, refusing to let the industry's changing definitions of success determine her timing.
Marsa shares, “When I first got started in the music business, I was told it's all about timing—and for women, it's all about being young and sexy,” Marsa says. “There were times I asked myself, when will it be my time? The years rolled by, and sexy, well, it's a subjective word. However, timing is key as is finding the best team for you. That has finally happened.”
Then she laughs at the idea of what might come next. “OK, so I could stop, chill-out, now that I’ve kept the promise to myself, however the wheels are still turning, and the momentum is growing. Besides, I am having hands-down, the best time of my life! So it’s onward and upward!”
The next release and remix are already on deck. Marsa is preparing “PERFECT (Until Dawn Remix)”, another collaboration with Paul A. Harvey and Jim Sullivan. While that track moves toward release, Marsa is already back in the studio mixing yet another new song: “LOVE SONG.” Marsa doesn't describe her current success as a comeback. She sees it as a continuation—and an evolution. The years gave her something she couldn't have had at 25: perspective, experience, stories to tell, a deeper understanding of herself and the freedom to make music without asking whether she fits someone else's definition of what a recording artist should be.
