Maria Rice is one of the busiest professionals in the vinyl game. She’s worked with Bon Iver, Superchunk and restored many of the Numero Group albums which are not only critically acclaimed, but have also received three nominations for the Grammy award "Best Historical Album". Her remastering work also includes the 2018 reissue of Blondie's Heart of Glass. She’s been an active member of the Recording Academy since 2011 and was elected to the Board of Governors in 2020, with a focus on legislative advocacy for independent artists. She also donates her time to working with the Grammy U program, mentoring upcoming producers and engineers. Whew! Catch your breath, Maria is a whirlwind and a wealth of information.
