Maria
A. Olivero is an Italian singer/songwriter and also plays guitar, keyboards,
harmonica and dulcimer. She
collaborates with the English writer Matt
Lindsay; her
new Band is called “The Mad Rebels” (name
dedicated to Rebel Rebel by David Bowie) her
voice is warm, strong and mellow … her guitar is pulsates with a great sense
of rhythm, her shows are powerful, dynamic,
with an enthralling repertoire of live music of both rock'n'roll and
blues influence also rock and country.
She plays her original songs from the album and also some covers which have
meant so much to her over the years, such artists inspire her like Stevie
Nicks, Bob Dylan, David Bowie, Angelo
Badalamenti (David Lynch-soundtracks…) Hole, Joan Jett, Donovan, Sandy Denny,
Alanis
Morissette, Sheryl Crow, Johnny Cash, The Rolling Stones, Lou Reed ... Maria
was raised in a small town in Italy, by a family very much interested in
art, music and cinema. Her mother is a pianist and her father is a
photographer. This early exposure to the arts provided Maria the opportunity
to hear many different artists, many different styles... When
she was 13 She wrote her first songs with her white Washburn guitar;when she
first heard Tina Turner sing, she was a little child, she
said: "I'd like to be a rock star
like Tina!" In the
past she has had many different live-experiences.. blues/rock,
country/folk/rock (inspired by Sandy Denny-Fairport Convention) … she
worked in London with Matt Lindsay , she had performance in many places, in
and out of Italy;, many festivals, club and prestigious theatres, at The
Olimpic Theatre in Rome, at the Donizetti in Bergamo, at the Lingotto in
Tourin; Recently she was on tour in Norway with the Bobband for the “Don’t you dare miss it” Tour 2011;
She has collaborated and played with many Musicians like Ruben Minuto, Rudolf
Minuto, Andrea “Zingro” Zingrillo, Roy Einar Dreng, Jono Manson… Late
in 2005, Maria met English writer Matt
Lindsay. She considers this a very fortuitous meeting that has enabled
her to write music and sing with a renewed
inspiration. In
2006 and 2007, she worked to record over 50 songs of the extensive collection
the 2 had written together. One of the songs is "Dreams
Behind the Tears" – song
against child labor in agriculture. Maria
unveiled the song publicly for the first time at the ILO annual event World
Day against Child Labour on June 12, 2007 at the Olimpic Theatre in Rome. An
Event organized by ILO and FAO; Early in 2009 She formed
the Baton Rouge trio, a
polyinstrumental country-pop-rock trio. The style of music played by BATON
ROUGE ranges from Bluegrass to Modern Country while also incorporating Irish
folk tunes, traditional Country and Country-Western styles. In 2009 she made
her first album “Tunes along the
Tumbleweed Trail” produced by the country band Baton Rouge: 12 tracks.
Three of these tracks are written by the songwriting collaboration of
Lindsay-Olivero, in which Maria Olivero writes the music and Matthew Lindsay
pens the lyrics. Today Maria presents her
project: “Anyway” forthcoming album, written by Maria Olivero
& Matt Lindsay; “Breaking
Away” first single - a rock’n’roll song about a free spirit running for his own “vision”
… (Breaking Away will be out in February
2012) ’CAUSE I’M WORKING MY WAY, TO THE TOP OF THE HAY, I’M NOT SEARCHING FOR A SAILOR DOWN HERE; IF YOU WERE ME, YOU WOULD BEGIN TO SEE
, THIS VIEW OF MY LIFE WAS NEVER THIS CLEAR... (Breaking away, passaggio del testo) “The Mad Rebels” her new Band…

David Bowie) a new band, a new sound of rock to present her music: Maria Olivero vocals, guitar, dulcimer,
harmonica; Alain Bellintani vocals, guitar; Rudolf Minuto Vocals, guitar; Luciano Santoro bass; Flavio "Fleiv" Bergamasco drums; An enthralling repertoire of live music of
rock'n'roll influenced by some of blues, rock, country, enriched by 'the experience of
fine musicians that collaborate with Maria During the live shows Maria and the band play
original songs and also some covers which have meant so much to her over the
years, such artists inspire her like Stevie Nicks, Bob Dylan, David Bowie,
Hole, Joan Jett, Donovan, Sandy Denny, Alanis Morissette, Sheryl Crow,
Johnny Cash, The
Rolling Stones, Lou Reed ...

Morissette, Sheryl
Crow, Johnny Cash, The Rolling Stones, Lou Reed ... Maria è cresciuta in
Piemonte, in una famiglia appassionata di arte, cinema, musica; sua madre è
pianista classica e suo padre è fotografo; questo le ha permesso di ascoltare
e conoscere molti generi differenti: a 13 anni inizia a
comporre le prime canzoni con la sua prima chitarra, la sua Washburn
bianca, semi-acustica; “ricordo la prima volta che ho sentito cantrare Tina Turner, era il suo
live in Europe, ero piccola e dicevo “voglio fare la rock star come Tina…“ Maria ha all'attivo

permesso di scrivere e cantare la sua musica con una rinnovata ispirazione e
una grande sintonia; nel 2006-2007 Maria e
Matt hanno registrato oltre 50 canzoni, una di queste è Dreams Behind The Tears (Sogni Dietro
Alle Lacrime), canzone in chiave pop contro il lavoro minorile in
