Mayya is inspired by those who are unapologetically themselves, and aspires to create a positive environment through her melodic, energetic music.
Her band puts on fun filled performances, while her solo act is known to have a charming and vulnerable lyrical quality alongside intricate guitar work.
Her band has shared bills with a variety of artists such as Deerhoof, Mike Watt, Luna, Shannon Shaw, Kid Congo Powers, Death Valley Girls, Tropa Magica, Tim Presley, The Avengers, Downtown Boys, and Dick Stusso while her solo stylings have landed her shows with John Doe, Jeffrey Lewis, John Hiatt, Alejandro Escovedo, and Kelley Stoltz, as well as playing The Fillmore Poster Room on nights of Patti Smith and Gogol Bordello.
Mayya also currently plays bass with La Luz, Mild Universe, and Mae Powell, and formerly toured on bass with Chris Cohen.
"There is a unique freedom underneath Mayya's art that brought artists like Oingo Boingo, Pere Ubu, St. Vincent and Red Room Orchestra to mind even though she is her own thing entirely." - American Pancake
"'Breeze Through My Life' is phenomenal on all fronts, including tones and arrangements!
It is really a jewel. Light reminiscence of Scott Walker and early Pink Floyd only makes it more delicious" - Eugene Hutz (Gogol Bordello)
"One thing I like about Mayya Feygina is she's like Little Richard, she's her own backup singer and does her own call and response." - Greg Saunier (Deerhoof)
