Background Music. I will sing and play piano to cover songs that you have selected from my list of over 300 popular songs. You can request additional songs if booked early enough.
Singalongs. I will be more animated, more engaged with the group. There will be more interaction, more crowd work (jokes, funny stories, and questions).
For each set, I will sing for 50 minutes with a quick 10 minute break.

When Maria moved to Nashville, Tennessee as a songwriter, funny-weird-strange things started happening to her. Instead of ignoring them, she used them in her songs. (A boyfriend trying on her new black dress was a bit upsetting. Realizing he looked good in it - he really had great legs, was worse! And thus became her first funny song.)
When the audience began requesting the “funny” songs, Maria knew that she was on to something.
Now her songs can be heard on iHeart radio, Spotify and other internet radio stations under her musical comedy name of Maria T Comedy.
An appropriate time will be needed for set up and testing before going on.
Anyone available to help before and after would be appreciated to ensure sound quality.
For music, I provide a keyboard, stand, boom mic and power. I will need to know a sound system is available.
