Jazz music community with review and forums
Mariska Veres (1 October 1947 – 2 December 2006) was a Dutch singer who was best known as the lead singer of the rock group Shocking Blue. Her appearance, almost as notably as her eccentric and accented vocals, was striking, featuring kohl cosmetic-lined eyes, high cheekbones, and long jet black hair.
Veres was born in The Hague. Her father was the Hungarian Romani violinist Lajos Veres; her mother was born in Germany of French and Russian parents. Her elder sister Ilonka accompanied her father on the piano. Her youngest sister, Irene, never had a career in music.
Veres began her career as a singer in 1963 with the guitar band Les Mysteres. In 1964 this band made an EP (GTB-label, 10 copies only) and Mariska is singing on side 1: Summertime (solo) and Someone (a duet). In 2010 this EP was re-released by record club Platenclub Utrecht (PLUT 009). On www.platenclubutrecht.nl you
