Maya Bennett - S2E13 Raw Songwriting Raw Songwriting

    • Music Interviews

Maya Bennett finds her inspiration in the in-between moments. The ones when we feel most human. Her recent sophomore album "As the Pink Fades" explores her struggles with mental health, and where she fits into this world. Bennett's honesty has won her multiple songwriting awards through Swallow Hill and E-Town, and she's been praised by Denver's 303 Magazine for her live performance. Her passionate vocals, dramatic music and striking lyrics create a uniquely affecting experience for the listener.

Dave sat down with Maya to discuss how writing for a band differs from writing for solo performance, how grief can affect your songs, and why she used to think revising songs was disingenuous. It's another raw and riveting discussion about song craft!
