Mazie Biography

Mazie, born Grace Patricia Christian, is an American pop singer-songwriter who has been making waves in the music industry since 2020. Her unique style blends elements of psychedelia and bedroom pop, and she has gained a following for her introspective and thought-provoking lyrics.

Mazie's early life and education played a significant role in shaping her musical style. Born in Albany, Georgia, she grew up in Baltimore and began taking voice lessons at the age of 9. She later attended Drexel University's music industry program, but dropped out after finding success with her early songs.

Mazie's debut single, "no friends", was released in 2020 and gained traction after being featured on an official Spotify playlist. This led her to decide to pursue music full-time and drop out of college. In 2021, she released her first EP, Rainbow Cassette, which included two singles: "dumb dumb" and a re-recording of "no friends". "dumb dumb" was inspired by misinformation and written the day after the January 6th insurrection.

Mazie's music often tackles themes of social commentary and personal experiences. Her song "girls just wanna have sex" was featured on Out Magazine's list of top sapphic songs of the year. She has also collaborated with other artists, including Chloe Moriondo on the song "not okay" and Pussy Riot on the song "Sugarmommy". In 2023, she released her first full-length album, blotter baby, which includes songs from her previous EPs and singles.

Mazie's musical style is heavily influenced by psychedelia, citing The Beatles as a major influence. She has also been inspired by modern psychedelic bands like Crumb, Tame Impala, and King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard. Her lyrics often address political events and misinformation, making her music a reflection of her experiences and perspectives.
