Maron: Uptown

Add to My Profile | More Videos
Sounds LikeWe struggle to put a label on this girl, but what we do know about this coming album by Maron, to be titled Uptown, is that you've GOT to hear it. We've thrown around words to describe it like singer/songwriter, urban, and soul; pensive and worshipful, yet rock, real and gritty; with comparisons to Norah Jones and Sheryl Crow; and we still come up short. They're still in pre-production, but we have a feeling that when this is "drops" in March that it will make a big splash.... GRRR RECORDS.

   About Maron

Born in 1982 in the south suburbs of Chicago, Maron Gaffron’s life began amidst chaos when her birth father died before she was born. Her mother later married a Christian man who adopted Maron when she was two years old. Her father was a guitar player in a Christian rock band that practiced regularly in their family home. As a result, Maron grew up constantly surrounded by music, The first present she remembers receiving was a piano, and she got her first guitar when she was in fourth grade. Her father recognized her talent early on, and as a young girl on into adolescence she sang from time to time with her fathers band.

Maron was raised not only in an atmosphere of music, but also of ministry. Her parents welcomed prodigals into their home both to share the love of Jesus and to help them through rough spots in their lives. She attended church with her family and often sang solos and duets with her mother in the services. From these earliest singing experiences she realized the power of the message of God’s love embedded in music, and to this day the message conveyed by her lyrics is of primary importance to her.

While still in high school Maron heard the call of God to become a “missionary of music.” After graduation, she decided to move into the Jesus People USA (JPUSA) Christian community located in Chicago. As she continued her spiritual journey at JPUSA, she was inspired to write new songs with depth and insight emanating from the growing pains and lifes lessons she was learning there. After living in community a few years, she married and started a family. While pregnant with her second child, God renewed His call on her to be a “missionary of music.” She made demos of several songs in her father’s home studio and approached the director of Grrr Records, the in-house label of JPUSA. The rest is about to become history. Maron’s daughter was born in May 2005, and the recording of Uptown, her debut album, began in May 2006

Heaven’s Strength
God walks with you, He'll do his part
to lift up and mend shattered hearts
Water His shoulder with your tears
whisper to Him all doubts and fears
Find comfort these times soon shall pass
Life is but a tempestuous, fragile glass
Yet, with a wave of God's mighty hand
He can scatter troubles upon the sand
Leave the window of life opened wide
Bidding your Shepherd to come inside
During trials and troubles invite God in
Bringing peace and comfort once again

“God is our refuge and strength
A very present help in trouble”
Psalm 46:1
“I have hope in God, which they themselves also accept, that there will be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and the unjust.” Acts 24:15

“This is my comfort in my affliction, for Your word has given me life.” Psalm 119:50

“And the Lord, He is the One who goes before you. He will be with you, He will not leave you nor forsake you; do not fear nor be dismayed.
” Deuteronomy 31:8

Her name is Holly Starr. She played on Friday at the HappyFunTime Cafe and then on Saturday Shawn Groves cancelled so they had her play in his spot again at 445... Herb set on saturday was acoustic because the band left after the show on Friday(we live in Washington) :) then she played on Sunday on mainstage for the offering, but I just wanted u to know we think ur voice is so unique and we only listened to your sound check! I felt really bad we couldn't stay because it was so good... Thank u for your music and style, we really enjoyed it. In Christ-Luke
