Maya de Vitry’s devotion to songwriting is her way of staying present, curious, and imaginative. Born and raised in Lancaster, PA, 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. Now based in Nashville, TN, her musical heart is anchored in a deep love of song-makers like John Prine and Townes Van Zandt, emotive vocalists like Nine Simone and Bonnie Raitt, and the traditional music of Southern Appalachia. In 2019, she released her critically-acclaimed solo debut Adaptations (produced by Dan Knobler) and has quietly emerged as a prolific solo artist and musical collaborator. Violet Light (produced by Ethan Jodziewicz & Maya de Vitry) is her 3rd solo release, and was recorded in a basement home studio in collaboration with numerous musical guests. In addition to writing, recording, and touring with her band, Maya collaborates with other artists as a writer, multi-instrumentalist, and producer. Maya’s touring band is a fluid ensemble, showcasing musicians from around the country. Maya de Vitry & Friends will be a special 1-night-only hometown show, featuring some special guests and some seasonal songs.
