“The Grouch Magazine - Maryann – Life – “Thank You” 2:46 – Maryann, I am really becoming a huge fan! The bass intro is ultracool. The vocals are gritty and emotionally intense. This could be, quite easily, the best song Maryann has on the album. Excellent work! https://open.spotify.com/track/2VHvUWbvHgiaOFTLJNNUGN?si=Eb6uTzYIRY2cwSLcczTLxQ”

“Maryann – HITF 060617 3:50 – Maryann is back again. Man, this band just does not quit. This time out they are showing that they can play Pop tracks as well. The thing is that this is really good Pop, that could be an earworm. I have come to the conclusion that Maryann is simply a very talented and versatile band whom I really would like to see in person. Any chance you will be in Sweden this summer?”

“The Grouch Magazine - Sweden John Niendorf January 2018 - Maryann – Transparent World 2:57 – Maryann is back, and I am really digging the guitar intro. Those chords rock. Then her voice comes in and BOOM, there it is, ROCK N ROLL. The drums are heavy; the man knows how to pound. The guitar just lays down chord after chord in an excellent riff. I am not sure if this is a religious song, but in all honesty, I could not care less. She could be singing Pink Fluffy Unicorns Dancing on Rainbows for all I care. The music and her voice are incredible. I still want to hang with Maryann!”

“The Grouch Magazine - Sweden John Niendorf January 2018 - Maryann – Hips, Lips & Eyes 3:13 – Good God, I dig Country with a sense of humor. The song starts out with a Country vibe, before going into a Jerry Lee Lewis type of 50s Rock and Roll. The old-school horns in the background totally rock! Man, I hope those cats are wearing fedoras and shades. The thing that gets me are the lyrics. Ok, ok, Maryann does indeed sing well, in fact the song would suck if she didn’t, but what I really like is this is an old-time seduction manual. I want to hang with Maryann!”

"Crossing Over By The 31st" reminds me of a great vibe between John Lennon & Harry Nilsson. Nicely done MaryAnn! Keep making those great songs.

“Sven Melo "picture perfect" has a strong post-hippie vibe in the voice that i really love. feel reminded of melanie and david bowie's early years. great and nice!”

“Back for another round of MARYANN ! A wistful, dreamy, blissful, etheric sound — Excellent songwriting, thoughtful lyrics! For me, I hear stylistic elements of Pink Floyd, Traffic, Dylan, & Phil Spector. A richly textured, thoroughly original & pleasing sound. Saxophone put to very good use. Cheers !”

“Every time I come back to listen, I have to make sure I hear Crossing Over By The 31st. Your music is great... all of it. I can't help but be particularly enchanted by this one. It is glorious.”

“Your new song Picture Perfect is Brilliant! Vocals Guitar Outstanding Peace Barry”

“Crossing Over by The 31st, Great song MaryAnn - you're a lovely singer !! I watched the video and it's brilliant - Great effects and production, very impressive !! All the best from England. Love from Rob”

“Seriously, it doesn't matter which song you're gonna sing, I just love and am in love with your voice, Maryann:::::)))))))”

"picture perfect" is a hit girl!!! a really nice song... and oh so sexy... omg.... and talk about an emotional performance... like a female Dylan meets Marianne Faithful. Eddie who?????? you made me love a rainy night, girl.. your huge fan, humble student, da boi d .. signed... ya backup...

“Your poetic understandings, sympathies and ears of learnered tastes thank and salute you girl..keep creating and loving the beautiful mysteries of special music of any genre. Hate 'genres'. There's only 2 types of music. Inspired, thoughtful, little artful & smart.....and the rest that lack any of the above. Pious, maybe..but that's exactly how I see it. Rock on you..all the very best.”

“Great rendition of Wicked Games. Love that song! Sure wish Chris would go back to singing instead of trying to act!”

"If I had a nickel" is a phenomenal song. Don't know how I missed hearing it before. Beautifully different than one would expect it to be vocally.

“Wow Maryann, you've got the gift. Love the ethereal sound of "Crossing over by the 31st"...wonderful!”

“Hi MARYANN. Many thanks for the friendship and the wonderful comments you posted. Working our way through your superb playlist and finding there's many a gem to be found here, absolutely stunning vocals, you possess a rare and beautiful gift. Don't know if Rosebud is self penned or a cover but it is simply outstanding Spine tingling in fact ! Once again many thanks for dropping by . Best wishes AGATU”

“Really enjoyed your song list :) Excellent writing coupled with unapologetic lyrical prowess and a sultry voice to boot! Thank you for sharing! 3b”

"Hips Lips" sounds like it has a female Elvis singing

“Cool swagger to Memphis Tennessee MA & cool change into The Letter!!! And great version of It's a Heartache, you've made it your own. :):)”

“Fantastic cover of Fire. You added a great unique and personal touch to it. Cheers!”

“Wow, really unique sound you got there...almost like Joplin meets Etheridge. Nice work!”

“ENCORE !!!! ENCORE !!!!!! fabulous new songs. FABULOUS !!! pure Magic....you certainly Maryann get a great result from just a few hours in the studio.. FIRE ... has brilliant high octane vocals accompanied by Tim's fine detailed luxurious guitar sound, a smoldering rendition.. Needles and Pins...a great original Maryann version, you accentuate the words with your own tactile fabulously unique style.. Abracadabra....is spell binding,..I love when you hit all those magical notes..great song, vocals, and fabulous guitar... you give Abracadabra your own magical touch, you must be a member of the Magic Circle.. Soldier Boy...is a wonderful ballad love song that would make the serving recipient go immediately AWOL to get home to his loved one. Anyone can hear Maryann that you are enjoying recording your super fabulous new songs and you are certainly enjoying being able to test new songs out on a live audience on open mike night. Mixing cover songs and your originals is a great idea. x”

“WOW! Just BRILLIANT! You are so precious and wonderful, and it was quite an experience to listen to you, a pleasant surprise, and it made a deep impression on me. I'm going into raptures over your great musicality and your unspoiled vocal chord. I'm spellbound, you are a delight to the ear, and Im honored to be your fan. You are a super talented singer/songwriter, a great artist and lady of genius. Great tracks, great tunes and a really great, strong, pure, beautiful and totally impressive vocal. All the best wishes and good luck from a Danish fan and musician, Keld”

“You are a very good writer and a joy to listen to. As you know this is a very hard business to make it in and it is filled with very talented people that never leave their living room or their own town. You have it and I hope you get everything that comes from being willing to take the risk of putting your soul out for the public to look and listen to. Do not let anything stop you believe that you will make it because I think you will. Frank Whitenack of Blues Lightning”

“Maryann-Mania, M&M, Marvellously Maryann, when a singer bares their soul with so little instrumental accompaniment,well incredible talent sings the song so outstandingly repeatingly...dear Maryann, Peace and World Love, Johnny ♥”

“Love the vibe here. This is reminiscent of Johnette Napolitano with a Wanda Jackson twist. Such a brilliant genre mix and sultry sound. Very compelling. Thanks for all the listens:-) Peace -Ghezzi ”

“Feelin your soulful sounds in my bones. "BackUp Man" has a Springsteen/Spector wall of sound feel, MaryAnn. Great job!”

“I like the earthy vocal, especially on "Nowhere To Turn". And nice band, with its hot sax & kind of Roy Orbison-type sound. ”

“ღ hi hiii MaryAnn, so good to connect with you here on RN n ur jukebox ♪♫ you have some awesome tracks goin on here!! at the mo i have got me headphones on listening to ur awesome song ‘Rosebud’♪(^_^)♪ love the beat n pace, amazin bass line really compliments the brilliant guitar arrangement. cymbal crashes bring excellent dynamics. the flute playing is remarkable. i am a big fan of ‘Marianne Faithfull’ n with my eyes closed i truly would believe i am listening to her, remarkable voice you have MaryAnn ❤✿ܓ lyrical content is amazing n you are singing with such passion ur lyrical content is giving out the positive message for all men to treat women like the rosebuds we truly are n if they do not the thorn of the rose will cause emotional warnings to move along n they have probably lost somebody very special but learn a very profound lesson!! excellent on all levels, love this one n added to my favs!! ╗╔musical hugs ╠╣╗╔╔╗╔╗(¯`❀´¯”

“ MaryAnn has a prescription for knocking out a man (in a good way): Hips, Lips and Eyes. Of course, it doesn't hurt your chances if you can rely on your guitar and a lush, rich voice. A whole playlist of hits, and that signature ...=_=... of hers kills. ”

“MaryAnn is a soothsayer with a guitar, infusing every song with heart and soul. No one will win in "The Fight," a call for compromise and reason...an emotional cease-fire. ”

“Rosebud lyrics are beautiful and true. Nothing calculated, nothing fancy just as it is from your heart to ours. Special”

“ ♦☼ Hi Sweet Mary Ann, ‘Rosebud’ is an inevitable companion with deadly charm can’t help but love her so ˚ღ。* ˛˚ ♥ Awesome work Sincerely wish you and your music the success it truly deserves ♦☼ Hugs and Peace your Musical Friend Bernie ♦☼ ”

“MARYANN - "Hips Lips & Eyes" wow this hit me from the intro, fantasic way to start a song, when the vocals are this good, and what a track, totally unique not what you would normally hear on the radio, but you should. I love the originality of the track, that at the same time takes me back to some of the greatest female artist in the late 60's. "Rosebud is another strong song with a brilliant vocal. You have a special singer here she has her own voice which is so refreshing. Excellent XXXX Stars iplacemusic.com - CEO”
