In February 2020 she made her artistic entrance with the debut single “Drink Me Eat Me,” followed up by the sophomore single “Don’t Put Him on Pedestal” later that year. Since then, she’s dropped several further singles and recently linked up with Grammy winning producer Stuart Matthewman, best known as a founding member of the band Sade and his work with artists like Paloma Faith to produce her upcoming debut EP.

Now she brings us her latest release with the brand new single titled “Say My Name,” an indie pop song that was penned during a period of early sobriety while in the unique setting of Jimmy Page’s house during lockdown. The song covers themes of love, dreams and metamorphic life changes, delivered by an enveloping sound that sees Maria’s indie pop style tinged by her slowcore influences such as Cigarettes After Sex.

Casting a dreamy sonic spell brought in by distant guitar strums and the delicate patter of shaker and percussive tones, the mellow groove of punchy kicks and tapped hi hats ushers in Maria’s soulful vocal leads. With the rhythm accented by stabby guitar chord skanks and an arrangement wrapped in hazy atmosphere, Maria Rosenberg creates a truly hypnotic listening experience driven by gentle beats and slick instrumental work.

Airy synth tones stretch out, adding to the smokey aesthetic as Maria’s elegant vocal performance drifts through the soundscape, spinning poignant lyricism via alluring melodies. Injecting jazz vibes with a saxophone led breakdown, peppered by shimmering guitar chords, the song serves up an intoxicating musical cocktail that demonstrates Maria Rosenberg’s superb songwriting talent and arrangement skills as well as her vocal panache. With her forthcoming EP on the horizon, we can’t wait to see what Maria Rosenberg has in store for the rest of 2024.
