UK independent producer, singer, and songwriter Maya Yenn’s unique sound places feathery, gossamer vocals front and center of a moody, alternative-pop backdrop. Tinged with shades of contemporary R&B, her songs often feature dark lyrics surrounding themes such as anxiety and nightmares.
She takes inspiration from the upbeat pop sound of bands like Glass Animals and Jungle with influences from poignant alt-R&B innovators like FKA twigs, James Blake, and BANKS to craft her own brand of glassine, dark-pop.
Maya grew up in rural Staffordshire before moving to London having previously supported artists such as Dan Croll and Stealing Sheep as a teenager. She moved back to her parents’ Staffordshire home at the beginning of the pandemic and has continued to write and produce music from her childhood home.
