Even some of the darkest clouds are lined with silver. For Spanish guitarist/vocalist Maria Rico, two of modern history’s most challenging moments have come to lay the foundation for Luna Marble. The Manchester-based band are the manifestation of Rico’s lifelong love of creating and performing. Their sound blends Fleetwood Mac’s bluesy etherealness with Led Zeppelin’s grit, a grungy undercurrent and psychedelic shimmers aplenty iced with Rico’s Grace Slick-meets-Stevie Nicks vocals.
“My dad is a big music lover. My earliest memories were going to his office and picking a CD for the car journey to school,” Rico reminisces. “If you asked a five-year-old Maria what I wanted to be, my answer was: ‘Rock star.’”
