Alayna Maysie

Alayna Maysie is a songwriter and multi- instrumentalist based out of Boston, MA who writes groovy acoustic songs with ties to both early folk and contemporary popular music. She studies at Berklee College of Music, where she was recently named a Fletcher Bright Award recipient in recognition of her passion for American Roots Music. She plays fiddle and guitar and sings lead vocals in the Alayna Maysie band, and she also plays fiddle and sings harmony and the occasional lead vocal in the Water Street Wranglers. She also has played upright and electric bass with a variety of groups. The music she creates reflects influences from bluegrass and old time to pop, and her writing connects audiences through emotive storytelling delivered within a blend of genres. Outside of music, Alayna is also passionate about animals (particularly Autumn, her sweet cat that always looks grumpy), feminism, and ​exploring Boston.
