About Me |
|
| As voted number 9 in MySpace's Top Unsigned Artists for Neo-Soul, Miss Marie's uniquely soothing voice brings to the table a smooth groove with an urban rhythm twist. Currently working on her solo EP, hear her play throught NYC, coming soon "Melody of Love, reMixed Emotions" and "Rhythms of the Diaspora"BiographyMarie comes from a pretty diverse background, having half her roots from New Orleans, the other half from Greece, and being raised in Brooklyn and Athens. Her earliest musical influences are Motown, New Orleans Jazz & Funk, Eastern Ethnic Music, and Old School NY Hip Hop. She started learning classical piano, dance, and singing in a church choir at a very young age, till at 15 she decided to pick up the guitar and has been playing ever since. Her early years of playing rock and blues with various garage bands slowly grew into a more specific and "mature" sound, and she teamed up with the duo Andy and Simon of Hyplar (les disques aquatic). As a vocalist, rhythm guitarist, and co-writer for Hyplar, Marie experimented with a fusion of what she describes as "liquid electronic crooning music that makes you want to roller skate". Parallel to performing with Hyplar, Marie was working with another recording band called Indaba with musicians Black Moses and Simo, also as a vocalist, rhythm guitarist and co-writer. Before leaving Greece, Marie teamed up with a producer and worked with him as a co-writer for many Greek pop artists on some funky soul and r&b music that today are hits.Since moving back to NYC, Marie has been working on completing the production of her solo album "Melody of Love". Playing weekly shows throughout the city with her band and building a good following. She was voted into the Top 10 in Myspace's Top Unsigned Artists for Neo-Soul for NYC, as well as featured artist and finalist in the 'Make My Music Video' competition for BestOfBands.com. More recently, Miss Marie has been recording for a compilation album "Rhythms of the Diaspora" for which she collaborated with legendary artists such as LL Cool J, Gil Scott Heron, The Last Poets, Stanley Clarke, Sidney Mills, Larry McDonald, Trouble Funk, Swiss Chris (drums John Legend), and more to be relased Feb. '08. Her solo EP "Melody of Love reMixed Emotions" is due to be released in March '08 feat. her original song as well as dub, tech, brazil beat, and ethnic remixed versions. Miss Marie also is an active volunteer and devotes time for charity work. She is involved with humanitarian organizations such as Musicians On Call (www.musiciansoncall.com) where she performs for patients at hopsitals around NYC, Greek Aid (www.greekaid.org) raising money for the victims of the fires which devastated Greece in Aug '07, and other charity concerts and events.www.reverbnation.com/missmariebandwww.youtube.com/mis
