Distorted Banjos and folk elements play over symphonic psychedelic slam jams whilst ornate jungle guitar and electronica reverberate across the surface of stomping turbulent grooves …
“Maia a boisterous mix of Robyn Hitchcock and Mercury Rev, killer three-part harmonies and a mad electric banjo,don’t tell your parents about this discovery because they will only mess it up. It was that special” – Bag Thing 2016
“Cropredy Conventions early contender for performance of the day, Maia played a wonderful set of psychedelic folk tinged tunes that concluded with the spooky and sinister Voodoo Dreams ,quite stunning”.- Louder Than War 2016
“blissfully floating somewhere in-between the punctuated electro-funk of the Scissor Sisters and eschewed Doctor Who cosmic barnstormers. Think The Radiophonic Workshop with banjos and Mongolian throat singing” – Gigslutz 2016
