Where music, memory,and mystery intertwine.

IDENTITY / POSITIONING

Seer, storyteller, song carrier.

Michaela Foster Marsh is a Scottish–Canadian singer-songwriter and author whose work moves between the seen and the unseen, weaving music, myth, and lived experience into stories of love, loss, and transformation.

Her writing and music trace the space between grief and meaning, intimacy and transcendence, asking how creativity and ritual can remain acts of connection in a fractured world.

ORION

I Undid Orion’s Belt

A Mythological Rock Opera

I Undid Orion’s Belt is a full-scale mythological rock opera set across the celestial realm, the human world, and the underworld. Told through thirteen songs and choral interludes, it reimagines the Orion myth as a story of love, power, pride, and transformation – tragedy that asks what happens when desire collides with destiny.

A myth reborn. A love undone. A soul transformed.
