Free Concert: Maria Rose – Folk/Acoustic Guitar
October 10 at 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm
Join us for two performances featuring folk/acoustic guitarist Maria Rose.
Maria Rose’s musical journey started before she was even born — she was named after the main character in The Sound of Music because her mom was pregnant with her while playing a nun in the play. Yep, a pregnant nun! From that point on, Maria was surrounded by music and the arts, soaking up every bit of theater and live performance her parents could share.
She taught herself guitar from the University of YouTube and learned to sing by belting out Aretha Franklin, Celine Dion, Mariah Carey, and Etta James songs in her bedroom after school (she’s is still so sorry to her neighbors) She also attended Berklee College of Music for a short time before dropping out due to her busy performance schedule.
Over the past 20 years, she’s taken her soulful voice and powerful lyrics across the country, mixing Motown, pop, and blues covers with original songs that dive into mental health, surviving abusive relationships, and the “joys” of having an ADHD brain. Get ready for a performance that’s as fun as it is inspiring!
Performances are scheduled from noon to 1 p.m. and 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. in the SC4 Fine Arts Theatre.
Seats are general admission, and no reservations are needed. Doors open 15 minutes prior to showtime.
