The 26 year-old British native began her singing career with the help of a karaoke machine aged 11 and fell in love with the idea of singing for a living after she landed the lead role of Sandy in Grease and Serena in Fame.
In 2003 Maria managed to secure a deal with Telstar records after showcasing with her band. Over the next twelve months, she released two top 40 singles, ‘Chooza Looza’ and ‘Mr Alibi’, appeared on numerous popular TV programmes and modeled In a variety of magazines, Including OK, Daily Star, J17 amongst others. She also played to huge audiences when she supported Busted on their sell-out UK tour during April and May 04 and went on to support Dave Gahan on a theatre tour.
2004 bought some bad news her way, unfortunately her label was already suffering financially and they went into liquidation later on that year. This left Maria feeling a little sorry for herself, as her management and publishing were all tied up within the label.
Despite her fall down Maria and her band stuck together, they played at luxury hotels throughout Europe and spent their time writing songs and enjoying life in sunshine.
Since her very talented father passed away last year, Maria has been writing full time and has some potential hits that need hearing.
Her goal is to make it as a successful recording artist, again…..(This time for real), move to LA and write beautiful music for Hollywood movies. Some may think this is a little much to wish for, but anything’s possible with determination and a little bit of luck.
Over the years Maria has learnt so much and has now become an accomplished musician, writing songs of all genres with her Co writer and band member
