Austrian-born, Dutch-educated, and Brooklyn-based jazz composer-turned-indie-pop soul crooner Maria Neckam is one of my favorite finds of recent memory. Equal parts bold and ethereal, she blends her classical training in jazz voice and composition with a fresh sensibility similar to singer-songwriters like Regina Spektor.
And guess what? We get to premiere her latest release, “Familiar.” The only thing that bums me out is that I won’t get to attend her single release party this Friday, March 1, at C’mon Everybody.
Lucky for you, there are still tickets available. Click here for more information, pre-save “Familiar” on Spotify here, and stream the marvelous new single below:
