We are not only bandmates, but also best friends that have a passion for writing music of all genres!
Thank you for generously supporting Maya Blue in this year's competition. Your participation allows us to empower Global Citizen in their mission to eradicate extreme poverty and create a world where everyone has an equal chance to thrive.
Who or what is your musical inspiration?
Each member has different musical inspiration. Derek, the bassist, really likes metal like Metallica. Nick, the guitarist, is a fan of Blues/Blues Rock like B.B. King and The Allman Brothers. Tyler, the drummer, is a fan of Rock bands like King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard and Led Zeppelin. We collectively grew up listening to bands like Rush, Alvvays, and Snail Mail.
How would performing at the Global Citizen Festival impact your career?
Performing at the Global Citizen Festival would impact our career immensely! It would give us an opportunity to play on a major stage to viewers across America! Something we have dreamt of since becoming a band.
What would you do with $50,000?
With $50,000 we would focus on using that money towards recording, a practice space, and a van for us to tour in. We have always been about putting the money we get from shows and merch straight back into the band.
