Sweet Mary has the kind of pipes that can span a variety of styles with ease. She can growl and she can sing it pretty. With good pitch and a pleasant demeanor, her soulful tones are sure to keep you listening. Sweet Mary has been singing her entire life, and writes her own original lyrics and melodies. Recently, due to a successful Indiegogo crowd funding campaign, she has had the opportunity to work with amazing musicians and producers to bring the world her debut EP, My Road. The EP is scheduled to be released February 13th, 2015. My Road is a unique blend of R&B, funk, reggea, jazz and blues. With all original songs the EP features artists Ben “Smiley” Silverstein, and Max Newman from the band “The Main Squeeze” and numerous other musicians. Mixed by sound engineer Bobby Difazio, and vocal producer Lenny “Hooks” Goodrum at I.V Lab Studios here in the windy city, this is an album that you won't want to miss. Sweet Mary intends to bring you the rhythm and blues, and more soul than measurable live and in the studio. You will definitely be pleased with what seeps from within your ears, to your heart!
