MayaFlyer's sound is psychorootsafolkadelic - imagine Led Zeppelin marrying Heart, having an affair with Mahavishnu, and then giving birth to Metric / Radiohead / Beck. Combine that with indie rock pragmaticism and you've got MayaFlyer's slightly dysfuntional family (aren't we all from one) of ambient sounds, crunchy loud guitar missives to the pope, sensitive (slightly) puritanical fingerstyle guitar, harmonium, oboe, piano and more - all supporting a distinct female vocal lead.

4 or 5 singles deep (at least for video), if not every track, this album is destined to fly high. Catch it now so you can say you heard about them before they got big and "sold out," which they won't have to do ever because the music is already there, as rich as gold. MayaFlyer's 'All the Stars' heralds a new dawn for popular music, capturing an emotional breadth uncommon in today's corporate landscape of manufactured contemporary pop. One after the other, the CD shines it brilliant musical light upon feelings and issues as deep and varied as race relations in Tennessee to "Buster," a dog they knew who "gone off to the other side." They get funky on "The Word." They get down on the "A-train." They get playful with "Day and Night."
They chant "green stone ..." and open up to their spiritual roots with a psychedelic twist. The mourning is then expertly refined into "Queen of All the Stars." And they they got "One Fine Thing," it's you. You won't be disappointed.
