Mara on SoundBetter

Professional Extreme and Melodic Metal Vocalist with a wide range of vocal abilities.

Hails! I am a metal vocalist, songwriter, lyricist, touring/recording artist, and vocal coach with over 20 years of experience. If you need aggressive female vocals for your next project, I am up for the work!

My diverse vocal techniques include extreme vocals (screaming, growling, melodic screaming, gutturals), gritty/raspy singing, and clean/melodic singing in genres like Thrash, Death, Black, Groove, Alternative, etc. I've been awarded as the Best Vocalist at the Latvian Metal Music Awards 2018, received 2 Best Album awards, and performed across Europe alongside bands like "Sepultura", "Arch Enemy", "Bloodywood", etc.

I've collaborated on songs with Björn Strid from "Soilwork", Jeff Hugell from "Six Feet Under", Karl Sanders from "Nile", and many others.

With over 6 year experience of doing online session work, I will bring your musical visions to life.

    Mara continues to be the consummate professional. She easily one of the most talented singers I've had the good fortune to work with and she does things with her voice that I've never heard anyone do before. She's a great collaborator and I look forward to partnering with her again.

    Mara is an amazingly talented vocalist. She definitely excels at doing a modern metal style, but she's extremely versatile and can do more of a heavy rock style as well. She has a great range and sense of timing and drama. Will definitely be doing more work with her.

    Very talented. Very professional. Very fast. Very patient. Excellent, excellent, excellent. Highly recommend Mara for any project. She even put up with me being a pain in the butt and often times contradicting myself with the instructions for the song. A+

    Another great performance by Mara. Her vocal ability is impressive, and her voice is powerful and unique. She gives the music an edge that most female vocalists just can't compete with. Cheers!

    Mara is both a great vocalist and creative melody writer. She has a great feel and knack for rock/metal. I was honestly surprised no one had left her a review when I first came across her profile her, as IMO she has one of the best voices on Soundbetter. To prospective clients, have no fear, Mara will not disappoint. Hope to work with her again in the future. Cheers!
