Rising Stars: Maya Delilah


11 11 2025

London based singer/songwriter and guitarist Maya Delilah graduated from the BRIT School in 2018, before going viral on TikTok during lockdown and building a fan base with her self-released EP’s Oh Boy and It’s Not Me It’s You.

Named a 2025 Spotify Artist To Watch, she released her debut album The Long Way Around in March 2025, featuring collaborations with Samm Henshaw and Cory Henry. The record was met with critical acclaim, with the Los Angeles Times calling it a 'timeless and gorgeous introduction' and Forbes hailing it as a 'once-a-decade debut'. Announced as the support act for Grammy-nominated American band Lawrence on their European tour, she'll perform at their headline London gig at the O2 Academy Brixton in November 2025. Riding the wave of the success of her debut album, Maya is also set to release the deluxe edition featuring four new tracks, in January 2026.
