Mellow neo soul/jazz 'nodder' from Maysa (Leak) released 1 Jan 2021.
I first came across Maysa in 1999 when Expansion released her 'All My Life' album which had the cover of Gil Scott-Heron's 'The Bottle' on it. She had already released an album on Blue Thumb in 1995 which contained 'What About Our Love' which became her first single and still sounds fresh!
She comes from Baltimore and started her career as a member of Stevie Wonder's Wonderlove. She them became a member of London based Incognito in 1992 and debuted on the album 'Tribes, Vibes + Scribes' from which the hit cover of Stevie Wonder's 'Don't You Worry 'Bout A Thing' transpired which is still Inconito's second biggest hit (#19) after 'Always There' reached #6 a year earlier featuring Jocelyn Brown.
To date she has recorded 14 solo album between 1995-2017 (the last 10 are all on Shanachie) as well as appearing on several Incognito albums including their latest 'Tomorrow's New Dream' in 2019.
