MAISIE

I decided to start solo with this project beginning in June 2008 so it could grab other opportunities, but didn't expect a turnaround to my whole life in such a short period of time. After re-recording demos for a few months, I went to Rockbot Studios to record the first EP titled, 'Visions' during the month of November 2008. Already with 'Visions' released on iTunes and other online music stores on December 20, 2008, I'm in the midst of taking the next step to release another EP in the works titled, 'Separate Worlds,' which is the real beginning to my message and abilities.
About 3 years ago is when I started having visions about this world, people, and its end. Being very spiritual, it has opened many doors including singing and writing songs about what has been poured out for me to show the rest of the world.
My influences come from very eerie, alternative/heavy bands such as Ken Andrews, Year Of The Rabbit, Blindside, Filter, etc. Mostly around the 90s where I feel like music spoke so differently than it does now in our mainstream scene. It was very raw and real, and that's how I feel my music is, except with a different message.
The things I write aren't sugar coated or about a break up story. We've all heard those over and over again. Most importantly I feel like I am completely letting everything go into these songs without the fear of people turning away from the message. Our world isn't a pretty place, and when we put out our sufferings and a sense of truth in a place of darkness, lives can be changed and that is the ultimate goal.
