Maya de Vitry Releases Fifth Album, All My Faith

Energized by the spontaneity of live performance and a revelatory pursuit of truth in her lyric writing, Maya de Vitry returns with her fifth full-length album, All My Faith, released July 24 on her own Mad Maker Studio label.

Prioritizing presence and grit over studio polish, de Vitry sounds joyously at home in the alt-country and indie-folk realms. Recorded and mixed by five-time Grammy Award-winning engineer Sean Sullivan and self-produced by de Vitry, All My Faith is a buoyant gathering of songs brought to life by a cast of her closest confidantes and collaborators.

A profound connection to nature runs throughout the record—not as a passing metaphor, but as an elemental and transformative force shaping both her voice as a songwriter and her orientation as an artist. At its heart, the album reflects on the ways human beings choose to care for one another in myriad forms, as well as the generative healing and wisdom that emerge from our relationships with each other and with the natural world.

Originally from the green rolling hills of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, de Vitry is a Nashville-based artist whose music blurs the lines of folk, indie rock and Americana. With a voice that glides effortlessly between tenderness and strength, her performances radiate with presence, spontaneity and soul.

The album’s 10 original songs were all written by de Vitry over the past year. Forgoing the technology often used to “perfect” studio recordings, she chose instead to fully trust the moment-to-moment musical conversations and choices of the players and singers gathered around her.

“When the band realized that I was planning to do no edits whatsoever on these tracks, the level of commitment from everyone just soared,” de Vitry recalls. “It was a really exciting atmosphere in the studio.”

De Vitry sings and plays acoustic guitar throughout the album. She enlisted Spencer Cullum and Ethan Ballinger, both members of Miranda Lambert’s touring band, for pedal steel and guitar, alongside Jo Schornikow of the alt-country and indie band Phosphorescent on keys.

They are joined by frequent members of de Vitry’s live band: Ethan Jodziewicz on bass, Dominic Billett on drums, and Shelby Means and Joel Timmons on harmony vocals. The band’s playing is responsive, uninhibited and emotionally spot-on.

True to de Vitry’s vision, everything heard on the record was captured in real time and recorded over three days at The Tractor Shed in Goodlettsville, Tennessee, from November 23–25, 2025.

Throughout the recording process, the band embraced de Vitry’s concept of a completely live performance with no edits, and the musicians’ rhythmic trust is palpable.

From canyons and kitchens to cold lakes and highway truck stops, the songs form a vibrant collage of joy, sorrow and gut-wrenching honesty. Whether spinning an inspirational tale about hungover bachelorettes at the Nashville airport or exploring the prison of our own adaptations, de Vitry brings a grounded confidence and quiet charisma rooted in her belief in the power of song to change us.

All My Faith embraces love as more than a concept with many facets and nuances. It is tangible and expansive. With each song, love is present.

Love is an action, a decision, an experience and the connective energy in the space between people and nature. Love is looking into and accepting the mirror, as well as looking at and acknowledging the shadows. Love moves through time. It is a universal force that can be consciously cultivated and shared.

All My Faith is de Vitry’s gift of love to her audience, her family, her partner, her friends and herself.

The album has already earned strong early reviews.

The Bluegrass Situation’s Basic Folk with Cindy Howes called de Vitry “one of the best working songwriters today.”

“Maya de Vitry joyously embraces the beauty of life and love, celebrating the daily moments that reveal to us the swaying rhythms of our lives,” wrote Henry Carrigan for Folk Alley. “Every song on the album radiates a luminous elation that reflects a warm and intimate recording process and gives us the feeling that we’re sitting in the studio with de Vitry and the band.”

“Her crystalline voice is the essence of beauty, while her songwriting continues to grow in personal expression and imagery,” wrote Jim Hynes for Glide Magazine. “The album embraces folk music, folk-rock and alt-country influences.”

Tom Hull of Music Week wrote, “I almost never get promos aside from jazz, but de Vitry was a rare country album, and an excellent one. Sound reminded me first of Joy of Cooking, then Joni Mitchell, but warmer.”

Hilary Saunders of No Depression called the album “fresh, friendly and sometimes even funny, like on ‘Bachelorette Lessons.’”

Ryan Dillon of Glide Magazine’s Caustic Commentary praised its “vibrant storytelling and heartfelt poetry” that “hit directly in the heart and leave a lingering glow in the soul.”

Aaron Willschick of V13 praised de Vitry’s “honest and open approach to songwriting,” while The Marinade with Jason Earle called it “a smooth and rich record.”

Glide Magazine described the title track as “radiant energy and momentum,” blending the sunny and thoughtful folk of the 1970s with pedal steel, piano and alt-country while veering into soulful rock and roll territory.

“Coin in Your Soul,” inspired by Spanish poet Antonio Machado, is colored by Cullum’s pedal steel playing, while “Bachelorette Lessons” was praised by Americana Highways for its genuine, cerebral and entertaining storytelling.

Basic Folk’s Cindy Howes compared “Occasional Oranges” to a meeting between John Prine and Kate Bush, while Americana Highways called “Adaptation” compelling for its combination of acoustic guitars, gnarly lead guitar and tightly coiled pedal steel.

AmericanaUK described “Nobody Else” as “a beautifully engrossing piece of music,” praising de Vitry’s intimate, effortless vocal delivery and sophisticated songwriting.

The Bluegrass Situation noted that “Confidence of the Sun” showcases de Vitry’s ability to find redemption in breaking old habits and being present, both within music and beyond it.

“Traveller” focuses on the passage of time and mortality through compassionate and easygoing folk arrangements, while “Cold Lake, Good Snacks” finds solace amid the grind of touring life and the faith required to keep moving forward.

The album closes with “No Time to Rush,” which Folk Alley described as “a paean to embracing every moment of our lives.”

De Vitry continues to tour throughout North America and Europe, performing solo, with her band and as part of other musical projects. She has built a devoted following drawn to her magnetic voice and hard-won sense of purpose.

Her newfound sense of liberation is especially apparent in her live shows, which have become spaces for spontaneity, peace and freedom, often woven together with personal stories that connect the songs.

“After the show, I just want to know if I’ve helped you feel more free,” de Vitry says. “That’s my unspoken agreement—to myself, my bandmates and everyone in the audience.”
