New Single Taken From Upcoming Album, Into The Waves, Out September 25th via Kscope
Maiah Wynne has unveiled the official video for her new single “See The Water,” the latest glimpse of her forthcoming studio album, Into The Waves, due September 25th via Kscope.
Directed and edited by Wynne herself, the video brings the song’s imagery of being hunted, haunted and overwhelmed to life, reflecting a track she originally wrote at just 16 years old.
“I wrote ‘See the Water’ in a handful of minutes when I was 16. I had just been gifted a dulcimer and found my hands quickly dancing around a folky melody in D minor. What came out was the manifestation of my inner critic. That voice inside my head that always told me I wasn’t enough, no matter how hard I tried. I decided to create a character out of her to represent the feeling of being hunted and haunted by that voice everywhere I went. The imagery of water and drowning in those feelings kept coming up and in a moment of quick inspiration, the song came out fully formed and has only changed slightly in the years since. It’s nice to finally have a studio version of it out in the world close to how I always pictured it in my head.” – Maiah Wynne

“See The Water” appears on Wynne’s newly announced album Into The Waves, a deeply personal collection written, self-produced and largely recorded by Wynne during a period of major change. Much of the album took shape while she was on the road, with recordings captured in hotel rooms using a laptop and Wynne performing more than a dozen instruments across the record. The album was completed with mixing and additional production from Justin Abel (Noelle Johnson, The Talbott Brothers) and mastering by Alan Douches (Sufjan Stevens, Motörhead, LCD Soundsystem). Into The Waves also brings together an expansive cast of collaborators, including cellist Bethany Joyce, violinist Avelyn Reynolds, guitarist Brooks Berg, drummers Adam Brzycki and Randy Cooke, flugelhorn player Henry Sheppard, and Rush guitarist Alex Lifeson, further connecting Wynne’s solo work with her role as vocalist in Envy of None. Speaking to Rolling Stone about working with Wynne, Lifeson remarked:
“I’ve never had that kind of inspiration working with another musician.”
