What Mara is looking for
Ready to commit to a working band playing 2–4 shows a month. Reliable, own transport, chart-literate. Not looking for open jams — looking for a project with a plan.
About
I grew up singing in church and spent my twenties fronting wedding and function bands across the Southeast — a fancy way of saying I can read a room, hit my marks, and never miss a downbeat.
These days I write my own material (D’Angelo warmth meets Emily King craft) and I’m hunting for a band that treats originals and covers with equal respect.
