“I’m not just making different music now. It feels like I'm breathing in a different atmosphere," says Nashville-based artist, songwriter, and producer Maya de Vitry, reflecting on her evolution from the acclaimed roots-Americana band The Stray Birds to her current solo journey; one ripe with collaborators and sonic ventures free of genre. On July 12th, de Vitry is set to release The Only Moment, a brand new, self-produced LP full of her evocative storytelling; textured, free, and impassioned. She grew up in a musical family in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, understanding music to be a place of gathering, a way to spend a summer night around a campfire. Maya first traveled and performed as a fiddling street musician, and then in bars, theaters, and on festival stages as a founding member of The Stray Birds (2010-2018). Since the band parted ways in 2018, Maya has been devotedly creating a powerful new body of work - one that consistently blurs genre while showcasing her delight in storytelling and her extraordinarily dynamic singing. Whether she is playing with her electric band in a bar or sharing a song on acoustic guitar at a folk festival, there is an emotional immediacy and a striking magnetism in Maya’s music. She has been invited to support a variety of tours - she has warmed up stages for innovative singer-songwriters like John Craigie and Aoife O'Donovan, and bands like Mighty Poplar and The Wood Brothers.
