Following the news of her signing to the Kscope label, singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Maiah Wynne has released her new single ‘See The Water’ from her new album 'Into The Waves'.
Speaking about the new track, Maiah shared “I wrote "See the Water" in a handful of minutes when I was 16. I had just been gifted a dulcimer and found my hands quickly dancing around a folky melody in D minor. What came out was the manifestation of my inner critic. That voice inside my head that always told me I wasn't enough, no matter how hard I tried. I decided to create a character out of her to represent the feeling of being hunted and haunted by that voice everywhere I went. The imagery of water and drowning in those feelings kept coming up and in a moment of quick inspiration, the song came out fully formed and has only changed slightly in the years since. It's nice to finally have a studio version of it out in the world close to how I always pictured it in my head.”
