Maria, originally from South Florida by way of Pittsburgh, PA, moved to New York to work with Grammy award winning producer, Ric Wake to record her self titled solo album on Atlantic Records.
Her latest CD is the independent release entitled "Beautiful Now" mixing pop, soul, and rock sensibilities.
Live performance is Maria's passion, and her newest endeavor brings a powerful, soulful style to the stage every time she performs with her 5 piece band.
In addition to Maria's success as the former lead singer of the group 3rd Party on A&M Records (that charted two Billboard pop hits, "Can You Feel It" and "Love is Alive"); her songs have been recorded by artists including Celine Dion, ("Just a Little Bit of Love" and "Christmas Eve" both on which she also lent backing vocals) N'SYNC,(The Only Gift) and Jennifer Lopez for whom she penned and added her vocals to the Top 5 Billboard charting single Waiting For Tonight.
She has also written for and/or sang with such artists as Ricky Martin, Kristine W., Anastacia, Raven Symone, Eternal, Wild Orchid and Martin Sexton among others.
Her voice and music can also be heard in such films as "The Replacements", "Night at the Roxbury", "Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen", "Kiss Me Guido" and "Drumline".
Maria has been applauded by the international press over the years including Billboard, Entertainment Weekly, and Time Out.
Billboard Magazine says, "Maria Christensen oozes with mucho star power. This petite young woman vamps and belts with the bravado and earthy soul of a seasoned, old-school diva!"
She is currently residing and recording in New York City.
