Notes
  1. ^ Maia keeps her last name private; and her pseudonym "mxmtoon" is derived from her initials (Maia X. M. T.).[1]

Maia (born July 9, 2000), known professionally as mxmtoon (/ɛmɛksɛmˈtuːn/ em-ex-em-TOON),[6] is an American singer-songwriter and YouTuber. Her music is characterized by emotionally transparent, confessional lyrics and often employs the ukulele. She released her first EP, Plum Blossom (2018); her debut album, The Masquerade (2019); the 2020 twin EPs—Dawn, Dusk; and her second studio album Rising (2022). In 2024, she released her third studio album, Liminal Space.

Maia began self-releasing songs in secret in 2017, before the size of her online presence became too substantial to conceal. In addition to involvement with music, Maia is a streamer on Twitch, has made a podcast, and has released two graphic novels. She has collaborated with artists such as Cavetown and Chloe Moriondo, and resides in Nashville, Tennessee.

Early life

[edit]

Maia was born on July 9, 2000,[7] in Oakland, California; she grew up near Lake Merritt.[8][9] Her mother is Chinese-American, and her father is German and Scottish.[8] While at school, she enjoyed taking art and architecture classes.[8] She became interested in music from a young age; her brother took violin lessons, and in first grade, Maia joined him. A few years later, she began playing classical cello and trumpet.[10]

In fifth grade, she auditioned for her school rock band.[3] Expecting to audition for cello, she was instead asked to sing Oasis' song "Wonderwall", and ended up joining as a vocalist,[11] where she recalls singing "The Middle" by Jimmy Eat World.[1] In sixth grade, she began playing guitar, learning in part from her father.[10]

Maia first coined the name "mxmtoon" on her Instagram account, where she drew cartoon sketches.[1] She started a YouTube channel in September 2013, and began playing the ukulele in middle school.[12] She wrote her first song at age 13.[13]

Career

[edit]

2017–2018: Plum Blossom

[edit]

Maia began self-releasing songs on YouTube under the online alias "mxmtoon" in 2017; the name is derived from her initials.[14] Although she started her career secretly, subsequent growth of her online presence compelled her to disclose her activity in this field to her family.[15] Her early oeuvre was recorded with GarageBand in her parents' guest bedroom,[16][17][18] and percussion tracks were created with found objects such as hair straighteners.[19] After initially attempting to write comedy songs, she began writing in a confessional style.[19]

Her 2017 collaboration with lo-fi producer Peachy, "Falling for U", became an early signature song; it has since garnered more than three hundred million streams on Spotify.[a][12][20] In 2018, Maia released her debut EP, Plum Blossom; It was accompanied by the "Plum Blossom Tour", scheduled for the March of the following year. While it was initially scheduled for five US shows with fellow Californian singer-songwriter Khai Dreams in March 2019, it sold out and was extended to include additional concerts in North America and Europe,[17][21] including opening appearances for bedroom pop YouTuber Cavetown.[12][22][23][24][25]

After high school, Maia took a gap year by postponing college to focus on her music.[26] She was planning to study architecture after graduating from high school, until her music went viral in April 2018.[27]

2019–2021: The Masquerade, Dawn, and Dusk

[edit]

Maia's debut studio album, The Masquerade, was released on September 17, 2019;[15] the album peaked at number 45 on the US Indie Albums Chart.[28][29] "Prom Dress", the lead single, found considerable usage on social media platform TikTok, where it has been used in over a hundred thousand videos.[27] The album's release had been accompanied by 21 Days, a podcast in audio diary format by Spotify that concerned Maia's activities while working on the project in New York City.[30][31] To support the album, Maia embarked on The Masquerade Tour, of North America and United Kingdom, in the same month of the album's release.[32] Her first graphic novel, The Adventures Of mxmtoon: The Masquerade, began selling in October 2019.[33][34] In the succeeding month, Maia signed to the label of Kobalt Music Group, under a global publishing deal.[35][36] She released a remix album, The Masquerade (The Edits) soon after,[37] and recorded "Prom Dress" in Simlish, the fictional language used in The Sims games.[38][39]

Maia released her first single of 2020, "Fever Dream", in January.[40] "Fever Dream" was followed by EP Dawn in April; accompanying EP Dusk was released in October. In an interview given in the interregnum between the releases of the two EPs, Maia detailed an intention to make music that "gracefully said thank you and goodbye" to her past work. Dawn and Dusk were soon amalgamated to form album Dawn & Dusk;[41] in the meantime, she also started a daily history podcast, 365 days with mxmtoon.[42]

Maia was featured in Dork's Hype List of 2020, alongside artists including Girl in Red, Beabadoobee and Maisie Peters.[43][44] In the March of the following year, she was announced as the singing voice for Alex Chen, the protagonist of the Square Enix game Life Is Strange: True Colors.[45] An accompanying EP entitled True Colors (from Life is Strange) was released concurrently.[46]

2022: Rising

[edit]

In February 2022, Maia announced a North American tour for her then-upcoming album Rising, entitled "rising (the tour)"; it was indicated that fellow musician Chloe Moriondo would be joining her in concert.[47] She also released "Mona Lisa", which served as the lead single for the album. Further tour dates across the United Kingdom, Europe, and Australasia were announced in the following month, with Ricky Montgomery accompanying her on European and British touring dates.[48]

Rising was released on the twentieth of May, after releases of singles "Sad Disco", "Victim of Nostalgia", and "Coming of Age".[49] A deluxe version followed in September, which includes the song Plastic Pony, which gained streams after it was featured in the film Ruby Gillman, Teenage Kraken.[50]

2023: Plum Blossom (Revisited)

[edit]

On October 2, 2023, Maia announced the re-recording of her first EP Plum Blossom, which would be releasing on November 10, 2023. She also unveiled an accompanying tour.

On October 5, she released "Feelings are Fatal" onto streaming services.[51] On October 25, she released "The Idea of You". When the EP released, it received acclaim from critics for having modern sound quality and for Maia's more mature vocals.

2024-present: Liminal Space

[edit]

Maia was an opener for AJR's The Maybe Man tour in the summer of 2024.[52]

On June 29, Maia revealed her single "I Hate Texas" while opening for the tour. Subsequently, she released the song "The Situation" featuring Kero Kero Bonito on September 4, and also announced her third studio album, titled Liminal Space, released on November 1.[53]

Maia also released a third single, "Rain", as part of the album rollout on October 10. The accompanying Liminal Space Tour is set to embark in 2025, starting in Nashville on February 18, and ending in Belfast on April 29.[54] Maia recorded a cover of "I Fall In Love Too Easily" for the 2025 tribute album Chet Baker Re:imagined.[55]

— mxmtoon, [19]

Maia has been credited in NPR criticism as having an "endearingly intimate presence".[56] Her music has been described as "warm folk-pop tunes with acoustic ornamentations",[23] "one part acoustic-pop a-la Kina Grannis, mixed with sharp lyricism and avant-garde, off-kilter melodics akin to Fiona Apple or PJ Harvey",[57] and artistry that "explore[s] themes such as the trials of love, being a burden to those close to you, and connecting with your family's heritage".[18][17] Joshua Bote of Paste wrote that Maia "might be the songwriter a new generation needs", noting that she is "made for these times" and is "armed with a ukulele, a sardonic charm and social media savvy;" he went on to describe her as "really, really good at the internet".[58]

Grant Rindner of Nylon wrote: "With a commitment to covering topics she rarely hears addressed by other artists, and a keen understanding of how to bond with her audience, she's emerged as a charming and relatable singer-songwriter with a massive platform."[59] After attending Maia's performance at the Gramercy Theatre, Briana Younger of The New Yorker wrote, "She sang of routine high-school problems, such as crippling self-doubt and unrequited love, with an emotional sophistication that reminded us that there are some things we never outgrow."[60] Joe Coscarelli of New York Times compared Maia's bedroom pop style to that of Girl in Red, Clairo and Beabadoobee, as well as the folk-pop "simplicity" of Regina Spektor and The Moldy Peaches; he described her as a character "who overflows with earnestness and giggles", and her rise in popularity as the assemblage of "an independent, D.I.Y. mini-empire almost by accident".[1]

Maia remains active on TikTok, where she has amassed nearly three million followers and 140 million likes, as of January 2023.[61] To date, she has had online presences on Vine, Tumblr, Facebook, Twitch, Snapchat, Bandcamp, Pinterest, and SoundCloud, as well as TikTok.[1] She also streams on Twitch, where she has over two hundred thousand followers.[62]

Artistry

[edit]

Influences

[edit]

Maia has cited Arctic Monkeys, The Black Keys, Sufjan Stevens and Elliott Smith as her influences.[63] She also has credited inspiration from female artists, such as Clairo.[64]

Personal life

[edit]

Maia is a bisexual woman from a family of immigrants[17] and currently lives in Nashville, Tennessee , where she writes, records, and produces her own music from her home that she shares with her younger brother.[18] She graduated from high school in 2019.[65] In Maia's youth, her parents played R&B and hip-hop, including Salt-N-Pepa and A Tribe Called Quest, which she still listens to "for nostalgia".[8]

Maia has been diagnosed with premenstrual dysphoric disorder; in 2021, she partnered with Kotex, a brand that sells menstrual hygiene products, to discuss her experience living with the disorder.[66]
