French musician Oklou, also known as Marylou Mayniel, recently performed at a Tiny Desk concert, showcasing a stripped-down and reimagined version of her songs from her debut album "Choke Enough." The performance featured a unique arrangement with an eight-piece choir, incorporating acoustic elements like a piano, guitar, and marimba, while experimenting with the choir's vocals creating textures and effects using bubble wrap and sticks. Marylou's musical journey began with classical training in piano and cello, leading to the release of several EPs and mixtapes before her debut album in 2025. She has collaborated with artists like Flume and FKA twigs, and her music has received critical acclaim for its innovative and nostalgic sound. Notably, in 2025, she announced her pregnancy just before the Tiny Desk concert and later welcomed her child in June. This concert marks a significant moment in Oklou's career, demonstrating her musical versatility and creativity that continues to captivate audiences worldwide.
