Marianne Faithfull was a groundbreaking artist whose life was marked by dramatic highs and lows. From her 1960s folk-pop stardom to her tumultuous years of addiction and homelessness, she reinvented herself with Broken English in 1979, transforming into a raw, uncompromising musician. Her later works spanned genres, embracing everything from rock to spoken-word poetry. A survivor of addiction, illness, and media scrutiny, she remained a fearless artistic force until her passing on January 30, 2025. Her legacy as a musician, poet, and cultural icon will live on for generations.
