LEWISBURG -- The Weis Center for the Performing Arts at Bucknell University will welcome Americana singer-songwriter Maya de Vitry at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday in the Weis Center atrium, a press release said.
Originally from the green rolling hills of Lancaster County, de Vitry is a Nashville-based fiddler-turned-songwriter with a voice that glides effortlessly between tenderness and strength. After a formative chapter of singing and songwriting with roots trio The Stray Birds (five recordings in eight years), she launched her solo career with her 2019 album "Adaptations." Since then, she has released three more full-length albums -- "How to Break a Fall" (2020), "Violet Light" (2022), and "The Only Moment" (2024); an EP, "Infinite" (2023); and multiple singles, all of which are testaments to her personal reinvention and creative growth.
Energized by the spontaneity of live performance and a revelatory pursuit of truth in her lyric writing, de Vitry returns with her fifth full-length album, "All My Faith." Prioritizing presence and grit over studio polish, she sounds joyously at home in the alt-country and indie-folk realms. Recorded and mixed by five-time Grammy Award-winning engineer Sean Sullivan and self-produced by de Vitry, "All My Faith" is a buoyant gathering of songs brought to life by a cast of her closest confidantes and collaborators. "All My Faith" will be released on de Vitry's own Mad Maker Studio label on July 24.
"I'd like my music to feel like you are invited into a lush living forest or into a remote river canyon where suddenly you are stripped of not only modern conveniences but also modern distractions. Where you can feel the essence of your own humanity and those around you. Where suddenly a stranger's story becomes interesting, or where you might choose teamwork and problem-solving and creativity over dogma. Where reciprocity and care start to feel more natural than just about anything else," she said.
Tickets can be reserved by calling 570-577-1000 or online at Bucknell.edu/BoxOffice. They are also available in person from several locations including the Weis Center lobby (weekdays 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.) and the CAP Center Box Office, located on the ground floor of the Elaine Langone Center (weekdays 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.).
