Description
With the release of her second recording, Mai-Liis has come into her own with a fresh set of tunes that are signature to her compelling musical storytelling. Through a voice that's uniquely hers, along with the ongoing writing partnership with composer/pianist Darin Clendenin, Mai-Liis' honest and understated delivery draws the listener in with its intimate calling, creating the feeling that you are who she is speaking to. With a great affinity for the works of Joni Mitchell, Norah Jones, Kurt Weill, and Leonard Cohen, Mai-Liis' work harkens back to songwriters of an earlier time. She delivers songs that are vulnerable and relatable. She can swing and she can phrase. She is the real deal.
"Female singer-songwriters and jazz singers, they are quickly judged on the basis of comparisons to Joni Mitchell and Norah Jones. Mai-Liis is one of the few to pass the test." - Georges Tonla Briquet, Jazz 'halo (Belgium)
