My Sister Maria is the original music project of Maria Gabrielle, a Vancouver-based artist with a voice evoking jazz and blues, and songwriting that blends folk and early 2000’s indie-pop-rock. Maria grew up performing regularly with her father, a professional entertainer, and carries that spirit of entertainment into her current work. Immersed in music from an early age, she developed her vocal performance and discipline through joining him on stage at countless festivals and diverse venues. For this evening at Guilt and Company, Maria will be performing with her 5-piece band, playing her folk originals and select jazz classics. Maria's voice and songwriting continue to garner acclaim wherever she goes. All net proceeds from the door will be donated in support of the Downtown Eastside Women's Centre.
