RELEASES
All of Maya Nicole's releases are available to stream on Spotify, Apple Music, and all other streaming platforms.
MAYA NICOLE (EP)
December 2020
A follow-up to her debut album, Maya Nicole's self-titled EP is a love letter to Americana & folk music. Exploring natural imagery, Dylanesque musical storytelling, and protest songs, the EP captures the spirit of her 1960s & 70s influences. Riley Jordan returned to produce, mix & master, and provide additional instrumentation on three out of four tracks on Maya Nicole. The final track, "Rich Man," was produced, mixed, and mastered by Scott Lester, with his band Letterbox providing their instrumentation to create a rock-tinged Americana soundscape. The cover art was masterfully designed by country singer-songwriter Nick Shoulders.
INDEPENDENCE CRISIS
July 2020
Released in the summer of 2020, Maya Nicole's debut album Independence Crisis explores coming-of-age experiences, historical character studies, and appreciation for her home state of Maryland & its surrounding region. Created in collaboration with producer/engineer Riley Jordan, the album features colorful instrumentation, often spotlighting slide guitar played by Jordan ("A Past Life," "Who Are We Now," "Black-Eyed Susan") and Michael Amodeo ("And She's Gone").
