In her new single, released on all music platforms, “LOST AND FOUND” , Maia’s soft yet powerful voice sings about feeling lost in the world and eventually finding herself again through a self-love journey. Maia’s genuineness shines through in this song and provokes deep feelings that many artists are afraid to explore. The new country-pop song also has an Official Music Video on YouTube where she showcases her vision to an even greater audience.

A few years ago, Maia lost her voice for some time, which is a terrifying incident for any artist. Yet, with her fighting spirit, she continued to write music anyway, still hopeful that her voice would return one day. Six months later, it returned after doctors discovered what was wrong. She had a minor surgery, and her “voice became stronger than ever,” she recalls. This setback taught Maia to believe in her dream despite any setbacks, solidifying her desire to be in the music industry.
