How did you hear about us?
Houston, TX
Profile Type
Singer/Songwriter, Composer and Actress.
What is your primary genre/style of music?
My music is influenced by rock, R&B, soul, jazz and many other styles. As for my style, I believe my style encompasses a rock/ballad and possibly R&B type of sound. When I write music, it comes from inside of me - I try NOT to sound like anyone else. I want my music to speak for itself.

Dear Maria Elena,
Thanks for submitting your new material for the evaluation. I liked the songs very much. Like last time, I'd like to mention that the majority of artists score in the 2.5 to 3.5 range in the various categories. Whenever an artist sees a 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3 or 3.5 as a score in a certain category (or categories) it means that's an area I feel they need to improve and develop. When an artist sees 4, 4.5 or 5 as their score in a category, it's a validation from a professional, confirming that the songs are of the highest level and show strong potential in the ultra-competitive music industry. To really raise the bar, every artist should work hard to earn a 4.5 or 5 in every category. It's a very competitive business and people averaging in the 3's (or less) will probably not get too far without a great deal of improvement and development. I don't give out 4's and 5's easily, so any of those you see, you have earned. Well done!

Thanks again for the music submission and continued best wishes! Please keep me posted on your career progress. I always enjoy hearing from you. Have a great day!

Best wishes, Gene Foley

Maria Elena Sanchez proudly announces her award for Best Song in the Singer/Songwriter Category for May 2013, in The Akademia Music Awards, for her song “I’m On Top of the World”. The selection committee stated: “In an era of slick vacuum-packed production, Maria's authentic and heartfelt vocals and lyrics seem refreshingly innocent.”

Valley Of That - "Rains"

I'm 24 year old musician from the DMV. I grew up singing in competitive choirs but switched to rap and pop, I've been writing and singing for 6 years, I'm starting a new project based on indie/folk blended with hip hop called Valley of That. "Rain" is about a girl I broke up with because she was hard to get along with, but I didn't really want to. Valley Of That ·…See More
