This EP introduced an artist named Mara Hruby from Oakland, CA. She arrived on the scene at the start of 2010, playing shows throughout the Bay Area, and in the same year released her debut EP, From Her Eyes. She worked on this album for nine months; she applied her multi-talented dedication to recording, arranging, and engineering her own work along with the help of others.

The seven track EP represent the genesis of the view “From Mara’s Eyes” of the various works of some of her favorite male artists. Each song is connected to a memory experience in Mara’s young life. The beauty and elegance of Van Hunt’s “Character,” Bob Marley’s love of Jah, Jamiroquai's love for funk and soul, Mos Def’s soulful poetry, André “3000” Benjamin’s “Take Off Your Cool,” as well as D’Angelo’s “Send It On” – are all examples of art forms from today’s exceptional musicians.
