Maya Delilah + Qbanaa @ Live at St. Luke's

Maya Delilah, a 23-year-old singer-songwriter and guitarist from North London, began her music journey inspired by artists like Prince and Aretha Franklin. A graduate of the BRIT School, she gained popularity on TikTok and Instagram with her impressive guitar skills; since 2020, her self-released tracks, including “Breakup Season” and “Moonflower,” have garnered over 40 million streams. Her music features a soulful pop sound with standout guitar harmonies, and she aims to challenge stereotypes about female guitarists and inspire young girls through her work and social media presence.
Qbanaa, frequently described as a jazzy neo-soul artist, mixes her inspirations from Erykah Badu, Hiatus Kaiyote, Kali Uchis, Khruangbin, Amy Winehouse and Greentea Peng. Based in Dublin, Qbanaa grew up travelling back and forth from Cuba where music and salsa dancing were integral parts of her childhood; a dancer for 10 years, she grew up in North Frederick Street Flats, D1 where she sang in school choirs and with her grandmother in Spanish Mass. Q has founded the Soul Juice Jazz/Soul open mic in Dashi, and has headlined Dublin shows at the SoundHouse.
