MAURICIA 

Hailing from the spice isle of Grenada, Mauricia Pascal is a multi faceted artiste whose interests are reflective of her ancestry. While her mother is from Grenada her father was born in Antigua, their cultural influences led to her pursuit of the indigenous soca music. 

Her journey into music was catapulted by her migration to the United States and her advent into pursuing her craft through her school and church choir. Her love for music in conjunction with her gift of poetry, led to the development of her song writing skills. A gifted musician, she plays the guitar and has also honed her skills on the Double Seconds and Double Tenor pans with the Sesame Flyers Steel Orchestra. She soon realized that singing had special meaning to her and added the element of dance to her diverse skill set whilst performing at the SFI Beacon Talent Show. 

Mauricia credits international recording artistes Madonna and Britney Spears and regional artiste Denise Belfon who are known to be dynamic stage performers as being her inspiration. 

Her passion for her craft and the support of her family fuelled her to become focused on the development of her musical career, placing her in the limelight of soca music. Her high energy, strong stage presence and the sexiness which she exudes as a true Caribbean diva, is highlighted in her first release ‘Aggressive.” It was no surprise when she won the title of USA Female Soca Artiste of the Year 2007. Her other tracks which have helped increase her popularity are “Sweat” and “Pump It”. She has secured numerous performances on the club circuit throughout New York.   Her accolades include co-hosting on Link Up Radio, an internet based radio station, which features the most popular Caribbean music, alongside Kevi Crown and Fatta Diamond. In 2013 she was also a featured radio personality on Boomstation.net. 

Mauricia has released herself titled debut album which is garnering steady sales on iTunes and Amazon websites. The sassy Mauricia is set to make an indelible print on the musical landscape as she continues to take her music to the next level.
