Album of the Week ****- Time Out London 
£7 + BF from seetickets

Self proclaimed inventors of Psychedelic Sci-fi folk Maia create a  genre busting mix of sweet stunning vocal harmonies over funky blissed out grooves; punctuated by echoing banjo, guitar, shimmering mandolins, spooky brass,deep bass and keyboards. Distorted Banjos and folk elements play over symphonic psychedelic slam jams whilst  ornate  jungle guitar and electronica reverberate across the surface of  stomping turbulent grooves ….

“Maia a boisterous mix of Robyn Hitchcock and Mercury Rev, killer three-part harmonies and a mad electric banjo,don’t tell your parents about this discovery because they will only mess it up. It was that special” – Bag Thing 2016​
