Maria May along with Brionna Trilling (Chicago/Toronto/tour ballet girl) are part a quintet called "Inspire 5". They have recorded their first video "Broken Promises", which they themselves wrote. It has a soundtrack by Thommie Retter, per Brionna's mom's public Facebook post.

I think that Ruby is a brilliant choice to read for the young Judy Garland. :D

To get an idea just how brilliant a choice this is, here is Ruby singing one of Judy's famous hits, "I'm Nobody's Baby":

It took a while to sort this (I hope!): Maddy Novak (Margaret Gormley), who appears to now go by the name of Maddy Bowes, will take part in The 2014 Hoboken Fall Arts & Music Festival.
Maddy Bowes
Maddy earned her way as a singer and songwriter with solid maturity gained from a professional entertainment background. Club dates at The Bitter End and a role in Broadway's Billy Elliot – for 700 performances! – are a few of her creds. A fresh faced 16 year old out of Hoboken NJ, ready to strike. The soulful prowess is vocally and lyrically unique, real and honest, and wise beyond her years. Maddy Bowes has a voice that's fierce, yet full of grace when she peels off the wool and takes off the gloves. She debuts with self-composed, musically addictive breakout songs that smash the heart.

Here she is, singing a cover of Adele's One and Only:
