Marley Munroe (born 18 January 1985), known professionally as Lady Blackbird, is an American-born jazz and soul singer-songwriter, working primarily in the United Kingdom.

[3] Munroe was raised in Farmington, New Mexico by a religious family and was encouraged by her parents to sing from a young age, first performing the national anthem at local basketball games[2] and in church.

[5] Munroe then became an independent musician, touring with DC Talk's TobyMac and appearing on his first four solo albums, and doing sessions in New York City and Los Angeles.

This included collaborations with notable artists such as Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, Sam Watters, Tricky Stewart and Louis Biancaniello.

[9] Black Acid Soul received a five-star review in The Guardian, with Alexis Petridis describing it as "musically understated, stark and rooted in jazz".

[2] In 2023, producer Trevor Horn recorded a remake of Grace Jones' "Slave to the Rhythm", which he co-wrote, with Lady Blackbird on lead vocals.
