Maria Volonte, a member of the Tango Hall of Fame, is renowned for her intense, passionate performances. Her current repertoire of original compositions explores the fusion of tango and Latin American folk music with the blues. Her performances feature Maria on guitar and vocals and Kevin Carrel Footer on harmonica. Songlines magazine called her "the best-kept secret of Argentinian Tango," while Jazz Perspectives described her as combining "the earthiness of Edith Piaf with the sassiness of Eartha Kitt."
