The year 2001 was the last time songwriter and performer Maria Wade worked a
“normal” job. Since then, she’s devoted her life full-time to music. All the
better for fans of rock-n-roll. Music is the love of her life and being able to
focus her energies on her songs has given her free rein to funnel her passion
into her songwriting, the result being colorful, emotionally rich music. “It’s
hard for me to describe how music makes me feel,” says Wade. “It is a way of
life for me, my religion, if you will.” “Who I Am”
When Wade’s in the throes of songwriting, the line blurs between artist and
creation. Her music pours so directly from her heart that the distinction
between what she feels and the musical expression thereof begins to fade. It’s
only right she be able to make music for a living. Everybody aches to say who
they are and everybody does it differently. For Wade, it’s her music and her
style of making the music that is her path. “Music is the main vehicle I use to
communicate who I truly am.” And any doubt as to the emotive strength of Wade’s
music is dispelled by the words of a fan without hearing. “My favorite comment
ever made to me was by a deaf woman who used to frequent my shows at a place
called Big Shots that is now closed,” shares Wade. “She told me she could feel
me when I sing.” Passion and
Personality
For Wade, that was a big signal from the universe that she was doing what she
set out to do. Her self was being conveyed through aural emotional stimuli to
the audience. She was communicating and she continues to communicate every
chance she gets, in the way she knows and loves best. “If I can make someone
feel an emotion and not just hear me, then I have shared how music makes me feel
to this world.”
The Artist at Work
Wade takes the stage three to five times a week and has done so since her
entrance into full-time music in 2001. She does from 200 to 300 shows per year.
“In 2005, I sang 325 days.” Not infrequently, Wade performs multiple times a day
and has played up to a month-and-a-half straight without a day of rest. She is
planning national – maybe even international – touring in the near future. She
hopes to have a new album recorded by February 2009. Wade is currently working with
A&R Select, the world’s leading independent artist development firm, based out
of Los Angeles, CA.
“If you ever felt a beating heart through the sense of your hearing, then you
can understand the power of Maria Wade’s music.” – A&R Select

I will not live an unlived life. I will not go in fear of falling or catching fire. I choose to inhabit my days, To allow my living to open to me. To make me less afraid, More accessible, to lossen my heart Until it becomes a wing, a torch, a promise, I CHOOSE TO RISK MY SIGNIFICANCE TO LIVE ! So that which comes to me as seed, Goes to the next as blossom, And that which comes to me as blossom, Goes on as fruit.
