Sunshine Coast Artist Mayah Unleashes Electrifying New Single ‘BLAME’

Out July 4th on all major streaming platforms

Sunshine Coast singer-songwriter Mayah returns with her most hard-hitting release yet: the dynamic, emotionally charged pop-rock single ‘BLAME’. Now five years into her professional music career, Mayah has carved out a name as a prolific and passionate artist with a voice that cuts through and lyrics that stay with you.

With over 600,000 collective Spotify streams, 15,000 YouTube subscribers, and a powerful presence on Instagram and Facebook, she continues to grow an engaged, loyal audience.

“Sunshine Coast singer/songwriter Mayah has delivered another fierce and feminine masterpiece with the release of Blame… an electrifying slice of lyrical poetry straight from the heart.”
— Penny Brand, Yelo Mag

Produced by Bob Brierty (Bobos Productions), BLAME is a sonic storm: driven by fierce rock lead guitar work from Stefan, pulsing pop-rock beats, and Mayah’s raw, soaring vocals. It’s a bold evolution of her sound — one that hits as hard emotionally as it does musically.

“Mayah’s Blame is a punchy rock hit that’s pure with unadulterated female power. She transforms pain into an anthem of unyielding strength.”
— Larissa Mahony, Locals in the Loop

Mayah explains:

“‘BLAME’ speaks to the shadows we cast on others. It’s about those moments when someone lashes out, not because of who you are, but because of the storm they carry inside. Their words may be aimed at you, but they echo their own hurt — their shame, their buried story. The truth is, they’re not speaking to you at all… they’re unknowingly confronting themselves.”
