Discover the raw Garage Rock energy of London's MAYA!

‘Alessa Moore’ is the latest single from London five piece, MAYA. A band with a real DIY ethos, drawing immediate comparisons to the Garage Punk of Viagra Boys and The Hives, ‘Alessa Moore' is an eruption of raucous, mosh ready energy. Full of energy and attitude, the song draws the listeners attention immediately with an angular, crunchily distorted guitar riff, perfectly setting the stage for the rest of the song’s relentlessly energetic duration. 

Meanwhile, frontman Callum Kennedy’s vocals are alternately reminiscent of the melodic and uproarious delivery of The Libertines’ Carl Barat and Pete Doherty. Full of attitude but not bereft of a sense of humour, the song is arguably defined by its uniquely forceful, uniquely catchy hook. Asserting a rowdy liveliness in juxtaposition to the song’s chronicle of youthful dissatisfaction and disaffection, expect this one to be screamed out by audiences when performed live.

With multiple Brixton Windmill headline gigs already under their belt, it’s clear MAYA are a band to watch out for. Well on their way to success, MAYA are no doubt on the cusp of breaking through to big things in 2026.
