Following their début ‘Tokyo’ EP and two previous sold out headline shows, Oxford 5-piece Maiians return with new single ‘Sionara’ on April 20th.

This epic new track is a master class in musical mind control and filmic elegance. Building in pace piece by piece, ‘Sionara’ teeters on the edge of the storm before soaring up into a haze of post-rock guitar, ground-shaking beats and jagged synths. With musical nods to Four Tet, Holy Fuck and Mogwai, ‘Sionara’ somehow manages to be both hypnotic and ear-worm immediate all at once. This track is immense, you need Maiians in your musical life.
Since their conception in early 2014, Maiians have been turning heads with their double-drum propelled electronic and arresting live performances. The band are set to play three UK dates this April in support of the single:
Catch them live
April 17th – The Bullingdon, Oxford
April 18th – Are You Listening? Festival, Reading
April 21st – The Lexington, London
