María Zardoya Biography
María Zardoya is a Puerto Rican-American singer and songwriter known as the lead vocalist and lyricist of the Grammy-nominated indie pop band The Marías. Zardoya co-founded The Marías after relocating to Los Angeles, where she began performing at open mics and small venues. During one of these performances, she met drummer and producer Josh Conway. The two began writing together and later recruited guitarist Jesse Perlman and keyboardist Edward James to complete the band's core lineup.
The Marías are recognized for a genre-blending sound that incorporates psychedelic rock, jazz, and Latin influences. Zardoya's bilingual vocals, performed in both English and Spanish, serve as a defining element of the band's music. The group gained early attention with their debut EPs, "Superclean Vol. I" and "Superclean Vol. II," followed by their debut album, "Cinema." The album received a Grammy nomination for Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical and highlighted Zardoya's vocal range. Their second album, "Submarine," debuted at number 17 on the Billboard Top 200, and the single "No One Noticed" became the band's highest-charting Billboard Hot 100 hit, remaining on the chart for more than 34 consecutive weeks. The album's success expanded The Marías' audience and earned them a Grammy nomination for Best New Artist at the 68th Annual Grammy Awards.
In addition to her work with The Marías, Zardoya has collaborated with prominent Latin music artists, including a feature with Bad Bunny on "Otro Atardecer" and co-writing and performing on Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco's "Ojos Tristes." Zardoya has been recognized by TIME Magazine on its Latino Leaders list and is regarded as a significant voice for Latinx artists in the indie music industry, noted for bridging cultures and languages through her work.
Expanding her creative pursuits, Zardoya launched a solo project under the name Not for Radio, releasing the album "Melt" through Atlantic Records. Recorded at Flying Cloud Recordings in upstate New York, the album is characterized by its atmospheric and introspective sound and debuted at number 13 on the Billboard 200. Zardoya followed this with an extended play titled "Bloom," further establishing her presence as an artist both within and beyond The Marías.
