Maya Sky was born in Kiev, Ukraine. She grew up in Israel, concentrating on contemporary dance and began singing relatively late, while living in London and making her first recordings there. Soon upon her arrival in New York, in the late 80's, she was offered a contract w/Rick Wake, producer to 80' superstar Taylor Dane, but decided to pass, since the condition was to tone down her quirkiness and adhere to generic main stream repertoire. Instead, she auditioned for art rock band "People Falling", promptly hired,and fronted the band into the mid 90', at which point, she began writing her own material and developing her solo project, Lurid Splendor. Her music and vocals have been compared to Nina Hagen, Bjork, Kate Bush, Freddy Mercury, Diamanda Galas, Shirley Basey, Cyndi Lauper and David Bowie. D. Bowie's long time, legendary producer, Tony Visconti, in fact, gave her two thumbs up, and she's often referred to as 'Lady Bowie'. The songs are hauntingly intense and cinematic. Each one distinctly different, while unmistakably bares Maya Sky's stamp of Cinematic Electronica with Vocals that Wow!
