FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

November 7, 2005 -- Los Angeles -- Award winning singer/songwriter Mara can add two more honors to her growing list today. She has been selected by the 2005 ASCAP Popular Awards Panel to receive an ASCAPLU$ Award for a fourth consecutive year. This award recognizes Mara as an active and promising young songwriter based on frequent live performances and independently produced records.

In addition, Sam Ash Music Stores has offered Mara and her band a spot as one of the first West Coast artists to be "Powered By" the national music retail giant. Mara and the Big Rock Stars will receive thousands of dollars worth of free equipment, as well as the opportunity to have their likeness and music featured on SamAshMusic.com in the coming months.

Sexy, passionate, acoustic rock that takes you on a journey to everywhere you’ve been or hope to go is how one fan describes Mara’s music. Her latest EP, Tease, was named one of the Top 25 CDs of 2004 by Music Connection magazine. Produced in Los Angeles by Chris Fudurich (Britney Spears, Sophie B. Hawkins, Susanna Hoffs, etc.), the disk features Andy Georges (Jewel, Sheryl Crow) on guitar and a guest vocal from Adam Kowalczyk (Live). Mara has earned accolades from much of the music industry – including the prestigious Billboard and John Lennon Songwriting Contests, Guitar World: Acoustic magazine, and the Los Angeles Music Awards.

In the states and overseas, Mara performs over one hundred live shows every year at high-profile festivals (South By Southwest, CMJ, Atlantis, Canadian Music Week, etc.), colleges and clubs. She honors the memory of her Grandmother and the struggles of other family members by committing her time to various breast cancer charities (including performances at Avon 3-Day events) and by donating a portion of every album sale to breast cancer research.
