MaidaVale is a rock band that met and formed in Fårösund on Gotland, Sweden, in 2012 at “Ella Music Education”. On the island located in the Baltic Sea, members Sofia Ström, Linn Johannesson, Matilda Roth och Johanna Hansson laid down the foundation of the heavy and psychedelic band and realized they all shared the same vision.
Once the band members had graduated they wanted to keep making music together and left Gotland to settle down in Stockholm. In Sweden’s capital MaidaVale regrouped and continued on the musical journey they had started a year prior. The members began to write new material, spent countless of hours in the rehearsal space and worked their way up on the Stockholm club-/rock scene.
With influences ranging over decades, MaidaVale have created a sound based in the late 60’s/early 70’s music scene. With a modern take on blues rock the band have captured many audiences with their heavy and psychedelic vibes, and developed into a highly acclaimed live act with the ability to spellbind and enthrall audiences.
As 2015 came to an end the band had gathered substantial live experience after having played at clubs and festivals nationwide. Some of the most notable appearances made at Sweden Rock Festival, Umeå Open and Krökbacken Festival. During the end of 2015, MaidaVale first recorded a live session and later on their debut LP at Studio Underjord. As 2016 begins MaidaVale is once again set out for the live stages in Sweden and abroad with their debut album Tales of the Wicked West being released on The Sign Records in May 2016.
