mxmtoonreal name Maia, is an American singer-songwriter, YouTuber, podcaster and activist best known for her dreamy pop and introspective poetry. Raised in Oakland, California, and now living in Brooklyn, Maia has built a deep connection with her large fan base, especially through social media such as TikTok, Instagram, Twitch, YouTube and Discord. Her DIY approach and authentic presence have earned her millions of of followers.

Maia began her music career in 2017 by releasing her first songs on platforms such as YouTube and TikTok. Her self-released music now reaches an average of 1.5 million streams per day on all major streaming services, and her songs have achieved over 930 million streams in total on Spotify. She interacts with over eight million followers on various platforms, including 2.7 million on TikTok and almost one million on Instagram.

Her new album "liminal space", which was mainly recorded in Carrie's home studio in Nashville, marks a return to the roots of her early work. In the creative process, she became increasingly self-confident and deliberately refrained from seeking the opinions of others early on so as not to influence her own artistic vision. Unlike her previous projects, this time she took more time before sharing the album with her family. In the end, she received particularly positive feedback, which showed her that something that seems scary at first can turn into something beautiful. The album reflects her realization that the process of self-awareness is a lifelong journey - full of fear, but also liberating.
