Service Description:

A Journalist wrote in 1997 “Maria should consider adding the title of Diva Extraordinaire as an official title to her name.  The woman is a living, breathing and singing fountain of effervescent melody.”

Over 25 years of being a professional Singer and Entertainer, Maria has captivated many audiences with amazing spunk and clarity.  Her delivery of song is commanding, sensuous and altogether a definite winner with her many and varied audiences.

Maria possesses a repertoire that encompasses all genres.  Her favourites are jazz, classical, ballads old or new, reggae and songs done in languages (Spanish, Portuguese, and Italian).

As a member of the “Bare Essentials Band” for over twenty five years, Maria has toured extensively to Europe, USA, the Caribbean and South America.  The Band represented Jamaica at The African, Caribbean, Pacific Cultural Festival held in the Dominican Republic October 14-21, 2006 and Shrimp Festival held in Roatan, Honduras in October 2008.  

She has performed in Cabaret at all the major hotels in Jamaica, on the North Coast.  Additionally, gigs with Dwight Richards & Friends and Harold Davis & Friends.

Maria has performed at numerous Weddings, Anniversaries, Birthday Parties, Charity Balls, Jazz Concerts, Church Functions, Funerals and Awards Dinners for most of the top corporate entities both in Jamaica and abroad.
