• 0:39
  Speaker 2: month is actually the ten year anniversary for our Black
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: Widow album, so we've brought back like a lot of
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: songs from that album that we haven't done like visuals
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: for or even played the song in so many years.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: So that's actually been really fun as well. And pulling
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: up pulling out a bunch of new bells and whistles.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, now you know this is now your eighth album
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: right now. I read an article recently that how is
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: god Mode different from your Blood album?
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: I mean, It's just an evolution, you know, music and artists.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: You know, it evolves and it shifts and it changes,
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: and a lot of our albums are also sparked off
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: of kind of emotionally, like what you're going through in
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: your life or where you're at and all those types
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: of things. But I think that they were a lot
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: alike in like the ways of we're always trying to
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: be innovative, you know, we're always trying to push ourselves
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: to do something exciting and experimental and what can we,
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: you know, keep evolving into. So it's been my honestly
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: one of my favorite albums since we did the Blood album.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: But we're getting ready to start writing a new album
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: here soon, so I'm actually already writing new music and
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: it's pretty exciting.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: Wow wow, Well, you know, I already love I love Purge,
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: I love Sanctify Me. And of course my all time favorite,
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: my all time favorite from from like collaborations was when
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: you did with with Papa Roas's song Gravity. But I
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: hear that Spencer from Einstein Kills did something with you
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: with the song Damaged.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he was on their album as well, and he
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: was the only person we collaborated with on that last album.
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: So wow, it's really cool.
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: I'm always I love collaborating. I loved also collaborating with
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: Papa Roads. It's it's exciting to like collide different you know,
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: energies and different people and they come together and it
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: creates this whole, you know, new thing and I love it.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: So if you could, if what is your dream collaboration,
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: then who would you love to do a collaboration with?
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: I mean, nine in Snails and Death Zones are my
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: two all time favorite bands, and Tool as well from
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: my third But so then, but you know, I almost,
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: I almost, it's almost. I don't want to get jaded
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: by anything or anyone because I've met so many people
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: in my career and sometimes most of the time it's
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: actually a great experience. But once in a bhull moon,
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: you meet someone maybe you look up to or you admire,
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: and maybe they're not so kind or sweet, and it
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: can actually sometimes sabotage your love for the music. If
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: someone is like not what you maybe put them on
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: that pedestal to be And.
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: So I don't know.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: Sometimes I wonder, because they're my favorites, maybe I should
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: never work with them.
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: Well, you know, it's but that I've met Chino a
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: couple of times. The nicest guy I think.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: I think, oh yeah, I got to meet him. I did,
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: so I have nothing but good things to say about
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: Gino as well. I never met tret Resner. I met
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: Gino and I've met Maynard, and I will say both
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: of them were really kind and nice. So Trent's the
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: only one I haven't.
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: He's like at the top there.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: Never met him, but I'm sure he's super cool. And
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: if I could do an album with front Rest, I mean,
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: or even a song, it would be the you know,
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: the absolute dream for me.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: Well, you never know, you never know. You we're talking,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: I know we're talking with Maria from in this moment.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: Of course, it's happening this Sunday Concrete Street Amphitheater. Tickets
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: are on sale right now Concrete Street dot net and
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: of course at the box office. Is gonna be a
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: great show. You know, how did how did you feel
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: when you found out that one of your songs was
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: going to be on John Wick Chapter four?
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: Oh it was so grateful and so appreciative. I mean,
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: anytime something like kind of big happens for the band,
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: I'm always kind of just left in awe and just
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: like and had no idea. It comes out of nowhere
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: and you're just like, oh my goodness. It the same
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: when we got nominated for a Grammy, and like certain
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: things that happen, you just feel grateful and filled with gratitude.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: And I kind of just try to keep myself in
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: that mindset. I feel like, you know, and you keep
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: bringing about.
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: Those positive things.
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: But it was a dream, you know. It's part of
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: like a bucket list, you know, you want to be
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: on these big, iconic, awesome movie Wes and Tyler Bates
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: did the soundtrack for them, and he's become our friend
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: over the last few years and we worked with him
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: on different things and he's just such a talented composer
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: and that's who we actually got to work with to
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: create that.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: So I also wanted to ask, how's your painting going,
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: because I know that you also do paintings on the
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: side with of course Marie Brings Wonderland. Tell me a
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: little bit about the paintings. Have you been painting lately?
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I have not really been. It's been really more
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: just art and music and things of the sort. I
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: stopped Maria Brings Wonderland a while ago now, but I
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: actually am getting ready to open my some sort of
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: like positive, kind of artistic and empowering kind of page.
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: I'm trying to figure out how to do it right now,
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: but I'm excited to kind of bring that back to life.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: And I do need to paint more.
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: I love it.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: It brings me joy, like playing the piano and painting
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: or doing arts like I don't know, it definitely brings
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: me a lot of joy and peace to like, you know,
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: it's almost my tative.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: Yes, I completely agree. We're talking with Marie brings from
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: in this moment. Looking forward to seeing you on Sunday.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: I gotta ask I'm gonna ask you off off the
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: wall question just because what do you want for? What
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: do you want for Christmas?
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: I don't even know. Everybody says that I'm so hard
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: to stop for because I'm one of those people that
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: if I want it, I'm gonna buy it, like you know,
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: So I don't like sit around kind of wanting things.
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: If I really want it, like I'll just get it.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: And so I don't know, I think I like more
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: of the personal things because you know, stuff that you
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: can just buy anywhere and buy it's like whatever. When
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: somebody makes you something, I don't know, it's to me,
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: it's such a special whether they painted it or they
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: put something together or photo and a frame, I don't know.
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: I really my favorite things are the personalized kind of
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: you know, they have that magic touch to them.
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: Wow, I like that. That's actually kind of cool.
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: It's that.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: One of the things that's like a highlights for me
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: is when I get something a drawing from now my
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: grand daughters that they bring.
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: Oh that's beautiful.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, my granddaughter. You know.
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, artwork. People making you things, you can save it
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: forever and it's like part of their soul and it's beautiful.
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: It's so sweet.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well you're sweet and we love you today and
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: we can't wait to see you on Sunday. Is there anything?
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: What?
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: What is the one thing that people can look for it?
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: I mean not giving away any spoilers, but yeah, what
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: can they what can they expect on Sunday? Oh?
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: You know we're bringing This is our last tour for
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: the god Mode album cycle. Like I said, we're about
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: to disappear and do a new album. So we really
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: put our heart and soul into our live show, especially
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: with all the extra bells and whistles of the Black
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: Widow songs. We're playing songs that we haven't played in
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: like eight years, so people can expect to get visuals
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: and a live show and things that they haven't seen
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: from us in a really long time and won't see
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: probably for a really long time. We have a massive
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: video wall, we have two nine foot none mascots on
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: stage for a little bit. We have nuns, we have
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: all kinds of bells and whistles. It's a really theatrical,
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: spectacular experience. We work so hard to put on this show,
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: and I think everyone's going to have a good time
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: of it. And again, especially those things from our Black
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: Widow album that we haven't done in forever, like National Born,
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: Sinner and Yeah and Sex World, Barbie and like a
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: bunch of these songs.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know it's it's I swear it's I've told
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: people this before. You don't just put on a concert.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: You put on a show, and it's something that you
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: will never forget. I've seen you dozens of times, and
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: every single time you come up with something new that
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: just amazes me. Every time I see you live, I mean, I'm.
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I put I pushed hard.
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: I do.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I swear, I swear you could probably put on
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: Broadway show with just your concert yourself, and like on Broadway,
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: you could do a concert like then it would be on.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: Toadway or like a Vegas residency. Yeah, I do dream
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: of that someday. So maybe it'll come to life someday.
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: But I love the theatrics. I love the larger than
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: live show. And the thing is, there are so many
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: amazing and talented bands out there and live shows out
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: there that are coming through town all the time, and
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: I got to just fight hard to keep myself in
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: the game. And what about our show makes us unique
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: and special from all the other shows?
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: And what about ours?
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: We have to keep it evolving because if they came
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: and they saw us, and they saw one exact show,
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: they don't want to come back necessarily just to see
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: the same show over again. So I'm continuously pushing and evolving.
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: And it's all for our fans. I mean, we're just
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: so grateful to you know, be having this ten year
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: anniversary for Black Widow in general, and having all of
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: our fans commit back to the shows and being supportive
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: to us. And so we're selling out shows and to
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: be this far into our career and still have this amazing,
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: loving fan base. I mean, it's just everything, it really is.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: Well, we're really looking forward to seeing you on Sunday.
• 10:15
