Bio
Maïa Vidal is an American-born French artist who uses toy instruments and make-believe to compose her own original, unique music. Mixing old world melodies and instrumentation with modern, confident songwriting, she takes us on a journey that is at once sweet and painfully honest, yet never loses its naïve sense of wonderment. Her current project began under the name Your Kid Sister, in 2009 as a RANCID cover-band, a project devoted to recording sweet orchestral versions of such punk anthems as RANCID's Poison, Daly City Train, and Not To Regret. Sung melodically and accompanied by accordion, violins, glockenspiel, and layered backing vocals, these normally aggressive songs were transformed into haunting lullabies, plaintive waltzes, and even gospel bossa novas. These transformations were meant to pay homage to the songs of Maïa's punk-rock influenced youth. For her 23rd birthday, in 2011, she decided to make the transformation from Your Kid Sister to Maïa Vidal, continuing her evolution as an artist, unarguably, simply, and honestly.
