Roxx teamed up with producer Kevin Shirley to record her debut album 'Payback Time'. It features musicians Paul Crook as a guitarist, Scott Metaxas on bass, Derek Sherinian on keyboards and Brian Tichy as the drummer. 21?! EP was released from this recording in 2008. It contains four songs, "'21?!'", "Oh Yeah", "Rebel", (all written by Roxx), and "Nothing Going On" originally recorded by Swedish band Clawfinger. Marya also wrote her solo album in Malibu with producer called Kevin Shirley aka "Caveman."
In May 2009, she performed as the warm-up act on the European tour of pop/rock artist LaFee. Roxx's band for her last performances was former Anthrax guitarist Paul Crook, Scott Metaxas and Jim Roe.
Her debut album, "Payback Time" was published on 5 October 2010. On January 2006 Marya’s debut “Could You” was a success for her in many countries like Germany and Finland.
