Maclayne Live at The Attic Bar & Stage on the MUSIC MILE

Maclayne is a singer-songwriter artist based out of Calgary, Alberta. With a style often compared to artists like Sara Bareilles and Regina Spektor, her melodic writing is authentically quirky and theatrical, featuring relatable and heartfelt storytelling, punctuated by honest and soulful lyrics.Doors at 5pm

Her debut album, Off The Deep End (fall 2024) is a project born out of a profound and transformative six-month journey through Nicaragua and features recent single “wherever it goes”, in addition to “sing”, (feb 2024) “out of the city” and “if you let go” (summer 2023), which received radio airplay on CKUA, CBC, and regional campus radio. “The intensity of selling my belongings, losing relationships, and traveling with little plan led me to process the experience through writing songs. I learned a lot about surrender, trust, and letting go, which are all themes woven throughout the record” says Maclayne.

After being featured in several artist showcases (Calgary Songsmiths, Canada’s Music Incubator, Ranchman’s Local Vocals) Maclayne played over 40 shows around Calgary in 2023, including selling out her first release show, and gathering sizable walk-up crowds while busking near Prince’s Island Park.

Maclayne currently practices as an accredited music therapist after earning her Bachelor of Music Therapy from Capilano University in Vancouver (2020). Growing up, she attended her jazz pianist grandfather’s (Ray Petch) big band shows and studied classical piano. Maclayne also taught herself ukulele and guitar before going on to study operatic voice performance at the University of Calgary.

Maclayne is currently traveling through Western Canada busking and performing house and small venue concerts as she ramps up her team and tour for the October launch of her debut album. A young storyteller with a unique ability to truly engage an audience in any room she graces, Maclayne is well on her way towards a thriving career as a songwriter and performer.
