Maria Lane releases debut EP

Brooklyn-based singer-songwriter Maria Lane is a new and rising artist who’s been dazzling listeners around the world with her authentic sound of indie folk music. Wearing her heart on her sleeve she threads her honest and personally lyricism into her songs to create a relatable connection wrapped up in a moving and intimate sound.

Growing up listening to folk and pop music in Orlando, Florida, Maria Lane always wanted to pursue a musical path. Asking for a handheld microphone for Christmas one year so she could perform her own concerts in the living room, she went on to start playing the piano and composing her own original melodies and lyrics before eventually stepping out as a solo artist in 2021.

Influenced by artists such as Olivia Rodrigo, Lizzy McAlpine and Avril Lavigne she crafts an empowering sound instilled with her expressive storytelling songwriting which draws on her background as an actor. Having made her introduction last year with her debut single “crying in a cvs (Demo)”, she’s shared three further singles in the build up to her brand new debut EP titled maybe i’ll feel better.

Featuring eight tracks including the lead single “haunting me” and the new version of “crying in a cvs”, with her EP Maria Lane provides the soundtrack to help listeners detach from their own reality to be able to process depression, changing seasons and starting over after heartbreak.

Written at a time when she herself was navigating the fallout of a breakup while trying to find the strength to try give love a second chance, maybe i’ll feel better oozes the heartfelt sentiments of an artist capturing her own experiences and emotions in music. Led by her beautiful soaring vocal leads, backed up by delicate instrumental arrangements, on her debut EP Maria Lane delivers a graceful and spellbinding journey that confirms her talent as an exciting vocalist and songwriter.
