Maija

 

Maija (pronounced “Maya”) hails from London, England but lives in the Washington, DC area.

This year she releases her new single "Let’s Keep This a Secret". There are no perfect words to describe how personal this song has been to Maija. It is deeply emblazoned in her life’s work and relationships. Maija sings a lot of Brazilian jazz but tends to write music in her native language English.

Maija wrote the melody and lyrics to “Let’s Keep This a Secret” and her pianist, Wayne Wilentz, wrote the harmonic arrangement. Gerry Kunkel played guitar; Leonardo Lucini, bass; Mark Prince, drums. The song was recorded in 2023 at Bias Studio, Springfield, VA. Mike Monsieur mastered the final product.
