Biography

I’m Maya Shaw,
A melody in motion. A dream that refused to stay quiet.
A woman who walked away from everything she knew to become everything she is.
I see melodies in color. I hear emotions before words. I write the kind of songs that sneak into your chest, sit beside your loneliness, and then lift you right out of it.

I’m a musician, songwriter, and creative artist through and through. I’ve released six singles and an album "Unfocused Freedom" — a deeply personal project that marks a new chapter in my journey.

I started playing classical piano at the age of 4 and went on to study at the Rimon School of Music, where I immersed myself in composition, acting, singing, and dance. That experience gave me a foundation not just in music, but in storytelling through sound and movement.

Today, I perform live, write songs for myself and others, and often collaborate as a musical consultant on creative projects. I’m here to feel everything , and turn that emotion into something real, something you can hold onto.

This is just the beginning, and I’m excited for what’s next, not just for me, but for every soul I get to create with.
