Athena Maria is a singer-songwriter and creative entrepreneur from Miami, Florida. Her music is a unique fusion of indie and pop, drawing inspiration from artists like Harry Styles, Remi Wolf, and Gracie Abrams.
Growing up in Miami's diverse musical landscape, Athena developed a sound that is both familiar and refreshingly original. Her latest single, "222," explores delicate vulnerabilities through heartfelt lyrics and a wistful soundscape.

As founder of her own independent label, Lovergirl Records, Athena Maria has embraced both the creative and entrepreneurial aspects of her music career, giving herself the freedom to maintain artistic control while developing her vision from the ground up.
Her live performances are known for their high energy and audience engagement. Together with her band comprised of other talented, local young musicians, she performs entertaining set lists ranging from well-known oldies and pop favorites to original compositions. Recent appearances include Patio Jams at the University of Miami, and the popular Social Fridays event with Mind Body Social.
Beyond her own artistry, Athena is passionate about nurturing other talents as a songwriting instructor. She believes strongly in the power of collaboration, viewing it as a means to build connections, improve skills, and find inspiration.
As she continues to evolve as an artist, Athena Maria remains dedicated to creating music that celebrates authenticity and emotion. With each release, she continues to develop her distinctive voice while staying true to her artistic vision. She is currently working on her debut EP, slated for release later this year.
