The first thing that leaps out when clicking play on Mary Ann’s song “Pressure” is the density and overwhelming rich quality of her voice. It seems effortless but probably isn’t; her vocals cut through that alt-rock anthem beautifully.
There are elements of Evanescence about her music, with perhaps a little more depth. Slightly goth in that they’re gloriously overblown and melodramatic (in the best possible ways), it all feels very epic and theatrical by design. “Wake Up Call” is another song that creeps into your subconscious, sets up camp, and won’t leave. It’s a slow-burner but, once it fully reveals itself, is super-rewarding.
