![]() Between the three of us, we can definitely put a great band together. I think because of the way we recorded the material, it would require some extra players to really do it right. I would like to sit in the audience and watch that. Because I think this material, with a great light show, and that really evocative kind of presentation would be really great. I think Andy kind of feels the same way, put a band together for Maiah to take on the road and do a small theater tour. ![]() if 's received really well, and there's a demand for it, then what I would like to do, is maybe do a few shows where I would be involved.

There are some heavier songs too, like Enemy, and then tracks like Kabul Blues, that sound completely different to anything else.” “It makes them feel different and more honest. “One of my favourite things about these songs is the intimacy of them,” reveals Maiah Wynne. When we say she’s special, it’s because she’s really fucking special!” I’ve never had that kind of inspiration working with another musician. After hearing her vocals on Never Said I Love You, I felt so excited. “She was able to bring this whole new ethereal thing through her sense of melody on tracks like Liar and Look Inside. “Maiah became my muse,” continues Alex Lifeson.
