Aidan Mayes School Of Music

Oh my, it is been a lot of work leading up to today!!! Launching an online program is no joke!!! I am 💯 invested in making sure my members have the most transformative experience that sometimes it’s hard to sleep. I am dreaming up lessons, new vocal exercises, strum patterns and inspiring shares 24/7. Thinking of new ways, better ways to deliver this wildly wonderful offering. Especially because the heart of Play Your Song is repeat students!!! So I feel this personal push to outdue myself and make it even more incredible with every release. Verse 5 is going to be so special. I have my partner in life, love and music Dan Tait helping me with admin and offering our group all of his expertise as a songwriter and touring musician and recording artist. We get to live and breathe Play Your Song - nerd right out on it together - 9 weeks of musical self care for our members means we recommit to taking better care of ourselves in the process - our music gets an infusion of priority and passion because it’s in the forefront of our minds and we are the example!!! Thank you to the courageous souls who said ‘YES’. You will not regret it.

I am keeping the doors open for last minute dears who needed a deadline to jump the line!!! There are 2 spots left. This really is the opportunity of a lifetime - not my words - my students words.

Oh life, sometimes you can be so cruel. But I am still in love with you. And you brought me Daniel Alexander, so that does balance out all the losses.

Captivating songstress, Aidan Mayes - Musician, reveals an earnest heart, bursting with beautiful, beaming light for everyone experiencing her soulful voice. A folk songsmith forged from nostalgic 90's alternative pop and Lilith Fair roots, her lyrics carry bold expressions of loss, love, great adventures, and dreams of an even better life. A classically trained foundation gives Aidan the core confidence to explore Joni Mitchell-esque alternate tunings full of ethereal edge and a full sensory supply of sweet soaring vocals accompanied by expert level organic instrumentation.

All the emotions poetically flow.

Check out Aidan Mayes at the Downtown Community Market this morning!

RAVE: Thank you NaramataSlow!!! The Wednesday night community market yesterday filled my cup to overflowing… the smiles, the compliments, the great weather, the kids playing joyfully, the generosity in my guitar case 😳 - the entire vibe was MAGIC!!! I can not wait to return. What a place!!! Have you been? Every Wednesday from 4pm - 7pm all summer long in Manitou Park. Totally family friendly event. 🩷

Remember to buy something from these vendors when you walk through any market, the market season has been very tough so far and I think we would all hate to see these amazing artisans and community creators disappear. Shop local!!! Support community. It was the most beautiful eve, and I can not rave enough about what’s happening in Naramata!!!! Incredible people everywhere!!!! Bravo ❤️🎶🙏
