Maya Ghose has established herself as a creative and soulful singer/songwriter with her newest singles "Hold Me Close and "Around The Fountain," as well as her first album released in 2021, "Where There Is." Finding inspiration from her life, Maya’s lyrics are deeply personal and heartfelt, yet explore universal themes such as loyalty, independence, strength, betrayal, friendship, and love. 

 

Growing up in a musical family, Maya has been writing and playing music since the age of six. Her first song, “Purple” was not a worldwide phenomenon, but it garnered much praise within her household and solidified her desire for a career in music. Since then she’s written tunes for school productions, arranged for a capella groups, co-written tunes for the stage, and penned over 50 pop, rock, R&B, funk, and country songs, nine of which are represented on her album. 

 

Maya has been quoted as saying, “I want to release music on my own terms and be involved in the entire creative process.” She is proud of being not only a singer, but a songwriter and musician. That said, Maya cites artists such as Ms. Lauryn Hill, Amy Winehouse, Greenday, and Katy Perry, among many others to be musical influences. That list continues to grow as Maya believes in the power of listening to other voices, while still being true to herself. 

 

Maya’s collaboration with her brother, producer/engineer, Brayden Ghose, has been deeply fulfilling. Her writing, combined with her brother’s tasteful production has led to songs that are unique yet familiar, and blend a mix of styles such as R&B, soul, pop and hip hop. Maya hopes to continue collaborating with her brother as well as connect with other songwriters, musicians who share her love for the creative process.
