Her musical career began as part of the group [Ekvivalent](/source/Ekvivalent), but her breakthrough came thanks to a competition run by the Estonian radio station Skyplus, in which Mari-Leen reached the final. However, she became known among the Estonian public as member of the girl band [Suntribe](/source/Suntribe). With [Suntribe](/source/Suntribe) she represented [Estonia](/source/Estonia) at the [Eurovision Song Contest 2005](/source/Eurovision_Song_Contest_2005) with the song "Let´s Get Loud".

Mari-Leen started her solo career with a cover of the Finnish hit *[Levoton Tuhkimo](/source/Levoton_Tuhkimo)* by [Dingo](/source/Dingo_(band)), titled "Rahutu Tuhkatriinu'". After the first single made it to the first place of the Estonian charts, Mari-Leen again topped the Estonian charts with her first solo-album *Rahutu Tuhkatriinu*, produced and written by [Sven Lõhmus](/source/Sven_L%C3%B5hmus), in December 2006.

In December 2011 Mari-Leen stated tiredness of her singing career and therefore decided to give it a pause.
