*Nominated for 2009 Best Female Singer and Best Non Traditional Rock Instrumentalist - Hot Rocks TV Show Music Awards.

I'm recording my 5th record! I'm very excited about this one. I hope you'll like it too!

Brazilian born - Seattle resident Paula Maya "is a stellar singer, prolific songwriter and virtuoso keyboardist with a very fresh and unique sound." Bill White, writer for former Seattle PI and Seattle Sound Magazine. She calls her band's music style 'Eclectic Pop Rock'.

Paula Maya's songwriting is very eclectic. She draws from her diverse and rich musical influences, and her great band, to create her sound. 'I'm crazy about music. To be able to let it come through my heart and touch people's lives is a great privilege. My background is in classical music and jazz. But fate had a different plan for me!"

Born in sunny Rio de Janeiro, Paula is asked a lot why she moved to Seattle. "I moved to Texas first. After 4 months in Houston, I moved to the 'MECA' for music, as Seattle was being called during the 90's." Maya studied piano at the Brazilian Federal University of Music and graduated from the Brazilian Conservatory. In Rio she started her career as a professional musician and shared the stage with artists such as Caetano Veloso, Leila Pinheiro and Djavan. In the US Maya has opened for, or shared the stage with: The Presidents of the United States of America, Tab Benoit; Cyril Neville (Neville Brothers), Vinicius Cantuaria, and many more.

Paula Maya moved to the US to pursue her recording career. Her latest release on Yellow House Records, Paula, was pre-selected for the prestigious TIM Brazilian music awards 2008, AKA the Brazilian Grammies.

*Paula Maya is an active member of:
- the Arts 4 Culture - NW Touring Arts Roster.
- the International Musicians Union Association.
- BMI
- a voting member of the National Recording Academy.

DISCOGRAPHY Paula Maya has released four albums. New Perspective, 1995, through Wow Mom Records (Houston), Resurrection - 2003 and Paula - 2007, through Yellow House Records (Seattle). And her EP, Resurrection 1st Half, released independently in 2000, from which the title track is featured in the movie �The Learning Curve�. Some of her songs can also be found in a few CD compilations, including the NorthWest Heavy Hitters series, sponsored by Disc Makers.

“My Desire” Orchestral Overture.

Extract now on music player.

Most people who are familiar with my music know I have been writing my first Orchestral Overture entitled “My Desire.”

I started writing the music in 2004 and completed the prelude song in 2006.
Since this time it’s been a matter of patience and perseverance in completing the rest of the music arrangement in partnership with my amazing friend, music arranger and producer, Al Steele.

We are only two months from completing the 12 minute piece and I would like to share with you an initial mix of the final movement of “My Desire” featuring the extraordinary vocal talents of Sarah Spencer.

Sarah was my inspiration and my reason for resuming song writing in 2001 and without her none of this would be possible.
Thank you Sarah with all my heart.

My special thanks to Al and Olia Tira for helping make my dreams come true.

Love you guys.

PS.My new book will be published on 30th April and I’ll provide more details soon.
