"Marta's artistry as a perfomer brings a style that is uniquely original while remaining respectful to the composers that she often covers. Her original material is creative, relatable and always fun to listen to. Whether she's playing her own tunes or another musician's, you can expect authentic, honest musicianship in every set." -

Bio
 

Marta has been making music for decades, but has really branched out into regular songwriting and performing within the last 15 years. She is a songwriter, singer, pianist, and ukulele player. She likes to call her style "mom rock", which is really acoustic rock with an ethereal and feminist touch. She writes originals and does unique covers of 90s rock tunes. Marta has a bachelor's degree in Music Education from University of Wisconsin-Madison and taught choir and general music as a public school teacher for 6 years. After that, she trained to become a piano technician and has been a professional piano technician for almost 15 years. She owns and operates The Piano Gal Shop. 

 

"Marta has a very eclectic style of songwriting where she has a brilliant way of blending solo piano music with everything from uplifting pop to hard rock. Her hooks and lyrics are matched splendidly with her vocal and piano talents, and in-turn is a all-around very friendly and charismatic person." -
