Maya de Vitry grew up surrounded by music. Her sister Nina has a solo album and plays in Noah Kahan's touring band. Her brother Kyle is also a recording artist. She initially received formal training in violin, honing her skills playing traditional roots music with family and friends. She is now adept at several instruments in addition to her vocal and songwriting skills.
