The indie rock band consisting of María Zardoya, Josh Conway, Jesse Perlman and Edward James was nominated for Best New Artist at the 68th Annual Grammy Awards on Sunday evening. The Marias, named after the frontwoman Zardoya, formed in Los Angeles in 2016, after she and Conway met at the Kibitz Room in LA.
"I've been looking forward to [Sunday] since [last] Tuesday," James said, which caused the rest of the band to laugh. "We're so lucky and fortunate that we get to do it together."
Zardoya added, "We're a little family. "We've been doing this together since 2016 — writing in our van, playing pizza parlors, playing bars, just playing to five people. You know, to be here years later at the Grammys is just so special and so cool."

In 2022, they released their debut album, Cinema, which was nominated for Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical at the 64th Grammy Awards. In addition, they collaborated with Bad Bunny on the song "Otro Atardecer" from his album Un Verano Sin Ti, for which they were nominated for Album of the Year as featured artists in 2023.
To become a Grammy Best New Artist nominee, an artist or band must achieve a significant, breakout impact in public during the eligibility year. In addition, artists must have at least five singles or one LP, but not more than three albums, or have won a Grammy. Though The Marías were formed a decade ago, they still match these requirements.
The Grammy Awards took place this past Sunday at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. Other nominees for the Best New Artist category included KATSEYE, Addison Rae, Alex Warren, Leon Thomas, sombr, Lola Young and Olivia Dean, who took home the award.
