She collaborated with producer Holbek (alias Steen Rock) on the song “Hudløs” from his album Frit Løb in 2011. The following year, she announced she was working on some new music, and her three-track EP Oh So Full of Promise was released in early 2013. Next To You, written by Maria and produced by Chris Colonna from The Bumblebeez, was featured in the 80 year-anniversary campaign for Lacoste. Additionally, her song "Missing piece" was featured in a 2013 Pandora campaign. Her second full-length album Oh So Full of Promise was released on digital and streaming services through her independent label Kintsugi Records.
