Hailed as a “valiant trailblazer” by JazzTimes and “a natural wonder” by Le Monde, Maria Neckam is emerging as one of the most original and innovative musicians on the East Coast, since moving to New York from Europe. “Neckam has crafted one of the most appealing, genre-crossing vocal albums to hit the street in 2010“, says All About Jazz about Deeper, her recently released Sunnyside debut, and “her voice has a hypnotic purity that has the potential to stop people dead in their tracks.”
Describing herself as an artist who uses her vocal technique and range to cross lines, Maria embraces her youthful energy when she rocks out, but always stays grounded in her musical savvy. Her compositions are diverse, combining elements of Electronic Pop, Rock and Jazz as well as Indian and Contemporary Classical music.
