SKIN (2020)

Everything I've sensed under my bare feet. Sensations tickling me. Thin threads under my skin, memories, the soft tissue covering my body, firm scars, shed skin, staying vulnerable.

Challenges that stretched me, the feeling of touch, touching you, skin in the game 

My fingers - they are dancing, telling my story, SKIN.

SKIN, a memoir, was my first album, which I’m still excited about. My starting point for composing the music was memories and inner moods from childhood. The pieces tell a story about moments and senses that have stayed in my body through all the years. The intention was to create an atmosphere that touches the listener under the skin and invites introspection and contemplation.

Now on Bandcamp, Apple Music, Spotify, Amazon, YouTube, and more!

After releasing SKIN, I have released one more album, BREATHE, and a few singles: PINK, STARSHINE & SERENITY (2022), and EMERALD (2023)

Thank you for listening.

Maria.

Did you know I wrote a book? The meditations in 7 Mindful Drumming Meditations were created to share these simple meditations you can do by yourself, with a drum, or by tapping your chest/ thighs as your drum. It's not about perfection, but with my written guidelines opening up to the present moment, the power of rhythm and silence while connecting with our bodies, mind, soul, and drum.
