New single Suntrap releasing on May 3rd 2023!
Maya is a Glasgow based British-Nepali singer-songwriter, harpist, pianist and violinist who creates textures with dense harmonies, classical instrumentation and pithy lyrics. Conceptual philosophies are packaged within jaunty melodies and poetry.
Maya is a recipient of the prestigious Paolo Nutini Scholarship for songwriting through the University of the West of Scotland where she is studying a masters in Songwriting. She’s interested in what it means to be human, and how that tension resolves itself in modern living. Classically trained, she uses her instrumental skills as tools to give light and colour to her work, masterfully borrowing between genres to create her own soundworld of chamber pop-folk-jazz, with a pinch of trip hop.
Maya's previous single was aired on BBC Scotland (Travelling Folk), along with features and interviews in Rock and Roamer, Teal Cheese, Rattler Mag, and Indie Music Discovery.
