Bio
Mav Viola first learned to play guitar in high school because there were no girls in the church band. A series of unfortunate events lead to her fall away from the church. This experience sent her on many different paths with multiple discoveries of self; a lot of which comes out in her music and lyrics. Mav is able to take her experiences and sing as though they have been had by all. Her pain is universal and easily connected to. Mav's music does not fear addressing the darkness of life and love. It breaks down, it wallows, it stands up, it yells, it melts; it embodies a spectrum of emotion felt in a lifetime yet captured in a single song. Through her music and captivating voice, Mav Viola provides a portal to a safer place where human emotion can exist in it's most natural and exposed state.
Mav has been influenced by many musicians, particularly Bruce Hornsby, Jeff Buckley, Martha Wainwright, Stevie Wonder, anyone who speaks their mind and let's their truth be unmasked and as it is.
