“Maia Sharp is one of America’s great singer-songwriters. Her storytelling runs profound and deep while honoring a pop tradition that urges you to sing along and feel good.” - Producer Don Was

“Maia is making some of the most innovative and soulful music around with songs that are head and shoulders above the rest. She has become one of my favorite artists...a brilliant album, start to finish.” - Bonnie Raitt

Four years ago, Maia Sharp achieved a lifelong ambition when Bonnie Raitt invited her to open for and perform with her on the road. It began when Raitt released Souls Alike, with three Sharp songs in the lineup. That album also featured Sharp’s backup on those and several other tracks, which led to her joining Raitt on tour.

Produced by studio legend Don Was, Sharp’s new album heralds her ascension into the spotlight after being embraced by Raitt, Carole King, the Dixie Chicks, Art Garfunkel, Keb’ Mo’, Terri Clark, Trisha Yearwood and many others who have recorded her songs.

“In the tradition of great female artists, Karla Bonoff, Bonnie Raitt, Christine McVie, Shawn Colvin, Sarah McLachlan...now enter Maia Sharp.” - Art Garfunkel

From this point, the secret is out and Sharp stands on her own - a uniquely gifted singer, writer and multi-instrumentalist whose peers are the most discerning artists in the business but whose music on Echo reaches out toward the wider world.
