Manage episode 320712724 series 2977530
Fragma's former vocalist Maria Rubia is our guest on the latest episode of Mega Music Memories.
The multi-talented singer, songwriter, actress, model, TV presenter and DJ shot to fame in January 2001 when she collaborated with the German trance group on the single Everytime You Need Me, which got to number 3 in the UK chart and earned Maria a silver disc.
Maria went on to achieve further Top 40 success later in 2001 with her solo track, Say It, collaborated with Akyra on a dance mix of Here Comes The Rain Again by Eurythmics and with Double N on Forever And A Day, which was used as the theme tune for reality TV juggernaut Big Brother in Denmark and Sweden.
As well as reflecting on her overnight success and time in the spotlight - such as appearing on Top Of The Pops on a precariously tall and small platform - Maria talks to us about what she's been doing since including her inspiring journey back to health after a period using a wheelchair.
We also hear about what's next for Maria, including a film role and new music she's working on that's expected to be out this summer with international DJ and producer Chelsea Singh.
