Mara's debut single, the forever iconic love song,  IT HAD TO BE YOU, off of her recent Ep release with BIGTONE RECORDS features incomparable roots and blues piano legend Carl Sonny Leyland and can be heard on steady rotation on LA’s premier jazz station, KJAZZ 88.1 FM. 

Her second single, DYSTOPIAN BLUES, an original tune, was featured on ‘The Kelly Clarkson Show’ and performed live on CBS News in 2020.

She most recently lent her writing and voice to Brooklyn hip-hop legend AZ’s track, NEVER ENOUGH featuring rapper Rick Ross. 

She is a proud faculty member of Centrum Foundation’s Voice Works program and a past instructor at their Acoustic Blues Seminar in Port Townsend, WA teaching voice masterclasses alongside some of the country's top blues and voice artists.

She continues to teach in San Diego and Los Angeles, leading voice workshops and coachings in both cities. 

After a lifetime in New York, Mara is thrilled to call California home.
