Bio

Mariya Fesiuk is a singer and songwriter, born on in Belarus in 1984 and moved to the States in 1990. Living behind the Iron Curtain, believing in God and worshiping Him proved to be very difficult due to the threat of expulsion or imprisonment. Physical labor was part of everyday life for her family, from sunrise to sundown. The everyday needs were so overwhelming that finding time for a hobby or anything artistic was totally out of the question.

Settling in Washington State was not easy due to the language conflict and a few bags to their name. Though only having a few bags to their name and surrounded by a new peoples and traditions, the move to America was a blessing

At the age of twelve Mariya (pronounced Maria) began to sing in her church and started to compete in fine arts. Though she never took voice lessons, she tied with two twenty year-old competitors in fine arts and then she was invited to the nationals. Due to lack of finances, she was unable to go.

After living in Washington for nine years, Mariya and her family moved to Asheville, NC in 1999. Meeting Sergio in July of that year (at her sister’s wedding), and then getting married in 2005. Falling in love with a composer has given Mariya an advantage in getting a specific sound to match her vocals instead of going to a studio to work with people you don’t know.

Mariya has recorded her very first album titled “So Beautiful” with songs in two languages and Sergio’s instrumentals. With that first record, she has traveled the United States and Ukraine performing in various places including the largest Slavic church in America. Touring for a year has given Mariya a feel for the road and a thrill of being able to sing in front of small and very large crowds.

Leaving the crowds asking for more allowed a leap into recording a self-titled solo debut. Writing new songs and getting ready to hit the studio again with an attitude to out due the previous album and to make Mariya Fesiuk a common name in homes where ever music is heard.
