Maria Butterly "IAMA", "Music Connection" Album and Concerts Reviews!


SONG & ALBUM REVIEWS…		CONCERTS REVIEWS… "...Electrical storm ... ...truly dynamic!" Valley Star Full Review "...a pleasure to watch ... world-class talent." Music Connection Full Review
Maria Butterly processes a beautiful voice and also excellent songwriting skills. She has the emotional ability that really draws the listener in to hear more in her songs such as “Kieran” and “Half Way Home On Your Own” in the Americana/Country vein. "Maria is the one to watch!" RATING: (4 1/2 out of 5 Stars)
	It’s Just Me - Butterly's self-produced seven-song CD features "Kieran", "Hear the Call", and "So Beautiful", are delivered with a powerful, pristine voice that projects an intimacy and earnestness that is ultimately winning. Arrangements are simple and spare, giving full rein to this Irish native's lead vocals and acoustic guitar. Background vocals blend sweetly, but do not overwhelm. Butterly is an "expert communicator."

	Maria Butterly ‘Live’ - Her original music combines elements of rock, alternative, country and rhythmic funk. Though petite, her presence on stage is commanding. A voice that knows no bounds… A phenomenal Singer & Songwriter.


	'It's Just Me' is just that -- a completely solo production, with Butterly handling lead and backing vocals as well as guitars and tin whistle. As such, it's a fine showcase for her technical skill and versatility -- Her songs 'So Beautiful' and 'Shut Me Out’ are potential BLOCKBUSTERS! Which show a strong grasp of the writer's craft.
