About Me |
|
Maria Daines fronts a hard working no nonsense rock band playing original material written by Maria & guitarist Paul Killington. Hailing from Cambridgeshire, UK, they formed in 1996 becoming a fixture of the live music scene & making several TV appearances, garnering fans in over 20 countries. BBC radio features tracks regularly along with FM stations world wide. In August 2007 the band supported US artist Pink at Cardiff Arena for the Party For Animals World Wide. The concert raised over £90,000 for six animal welfare charities. Maria & Paul continue to work ceaselessly on the many facets of their songwriting with project pieces finding placement in TV/film production. Daines/Killington songs are published by NorthStar Music UK & available for artist consideration. Maria Daines: Treebone (Maison Alas; 65.41) *** Daines, in England, has the tremendously exciting voice of a blues diva in the making. Her bluesy rock album with Paul Killington on guitar and all other instruments tantalizes as the precursor to her straight blues recording promised for release later this year. Many vocalists go an entire career without reaching the rarefied heights attained by Daines on the edgy, atmospheric ’Ain’t Nobody’ and the potent ballad ’Bring Your Love Along.’ Frank-John Hadley, Downbeat Magazine, March 07. A "Listen to me" voice that could split bricks or blast the dust of every static thing within 30 yds - Like pebbles in a grinder - like biting a beer glass. VOX radio, 2007 Opening for Pink at PAW 07, Cardiff Arena, UK OUR YOUTUBE PLEASE VISIT OUR MUSIC UNITED FOR ANIMALS PROJECT
