My Take
Maria Brink earns my respect the moment I picture her standing in front of a wall of metal noise and refusing to flinch. As the frontwoman of In This Moment, the singer from Schenectady commands a range that runs from full-throated scream to delicate melody, and that demands both lungs and nerve. She also plays piano and writes, which tells me she holds the violence and the beauty of the music in the same two hands. A Grammy nomination makes clear this is craft, not just volume. Her total commitment to the theatrical world of her stage persona marks her, for me, as a performer who leaves nothing halfway.
