Her self-titled indie debut EP was released in 2005 which labeled her as "one of the best independent artists that you should know about".[citation needed] Christianitytoday.com's Top 10 CDs included the EP in their Top 10 CDs. The awareness led to Curb Records signing Miller in September 2006.[1] Miller released the song "Cold" in January 2007 and it was picked up on Contemporary Christian music radio stations in the United States. The song hit the Contemporary Christian charts in 2007 and it remained on the charts for four months.[2]

She release the single "You're Not Alone" on January 8, 2013.[3] It was "written as a battle cry for a friend who was going through a really tough time, and he felt incredibly alone. I wanted to fight for him and somehow take away his loneliness".[citation needed] Marie plays mandolin, guitar, piano and bouzouki[4] and says her music simply represents the stories of her everyday life.[citation needed] Marie's single debuted inside the top 50 of iTunes' Top Singer/Songwriter Songs chart.[citation needed]
