Maya de Vitry, opening Adam Moss

Maya de Vitry’s dynamic and vibrant voice seems to rise out of some necessity of
bringing songs to life, embracing listeners with what Folk Alley calls a “soulful intimacy”.
She grew up in a musical family in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, understanding
music to be a place of gathering, a way to spend a summer night around a campfire.
Maya first traveled and performed as a fiddling street musician, and then in bars,
theaters, and on festival stages as a founding member of The Stray Birds. When the
band parted ways in 2018, Maya embarked on an ever-evolving musical path of solo
work and new collaborations. Her recordings and live performances embody both
sincerity and playfulness, and a compelling reverence for the power of songs to be a
place of gathering – whether played on stage, or around a campfire.
