After hearing rave reviews about Toronto’s Maylee Todd‘s performance during North By North East we had to give her tracks a good hard listen and boy were we pleasantly surprised!
She describes her sound as indie funk, but we find it to be all over the place in terms of style and right on the mark in terms of musicality. Her voice has a dreamy sweetness that rounds out what falls somewhere between bossa nova, soul, doo-wop, and pop in terms of genre, while an intriguing sense of humour is present in both her lyrics and videos.
Check out the video for “Summer Sounds” off her debut album Choose Your Own Adventure which is set to drop today. If you love it be sure and hit up her live show this Sunday at Lee’s Palace or hold out for her free show in the fall at Yonge Dundas Square.
