Maya Johanna is a Tel Aviv based singer-songwriter, who is known for her warm silky voice, haunting melodies and captivating performance. She has been an active musician in the local Israeli scene for over a decade, where she has taken part in various projects and ensembles, and collaborated with many acclaimed artists. In 2015 she released her debut album, Bells in Our Stomachs, comprised of seven of her originals. It received well deserved attention both locally and outside of Israel. Maya is now releasing new songs in Hebrew from a new project. The EP, ”Ma SheNishar Bi” (“What remains in me”), is the joint creation of Maya and Ben Golan, who composed the songs. Together with producer Ben Avgay they completed the recording of the project, which consists of five songs, and is influenced by Israeli music from the 60s & 70s and American folk music. The songs feature a captivating combination of lush and airy acoustic arrangements with Maya’s effortless and moving delivery. The result is a clean yet rich soundscape, and a type of naivety that evokes feelings of sweet and soothing nostalgia.
