Life and career

[edit]

1996–2007: Childhood years. The first musical activities

[edit]

Maria Alexandra Florea was born on 11 January 1996 in Bucharest, Romania. She started singing as a child, under the guidance of her mother, who wanted to become a singer.[2] In 1999, she started singing in the Allegretto Children Choir of Bucharest. At the age of seven, she met her first singing teacher and began attending music competitions all over the country. She then attended the Gymnasium School of Arts no. 4 in Bucharest for piano and guitar classes.[3]

2008-2018: «Miss Mary» Period

[edit]

At twelve years old, she meets Mihai Căciulă, who would become her manager. She went to a studio for the first time in 2010 and recorded “You Don’t Love Me” under the stage name of Miss Mary.[4] Shortly after, she signed with a local record label called Red Clover and released her first music video for “Open”.[5] In 2016, she started writing songs and became an independent artist. In 2017, she released “Shadows”, her first international song with “It's Different”, immediately followed by “Outlaw”.[6] During this period, she graduated from Caragiale National University of Theatre and Film in Bucharest, an acting speciality.[2]

2019-2021: «Holy Molly» Period

[edit]

In 2019, after one year of failed attempts to work with people and create music, she released “Everybody’s Scared”, her first single as Holy Molly.[7] Her next song "Ménage À Trois" was a collaboration with the German producer Lizot.[8] On August 6, 2021, Holy Molly released a collaboration with the French-Italian duo Shanguy called “C’est La Vie.”[9]
