LINA MAPES
A short stint in acting camp led Lina to music at the early age of 12. An old soul with a young spirit, Lina’s musical style, a mixture of indie, soul pop, and R&B,is influenced by some of her favorite artists vocal powerhouses Nina Simone, Amy Winehouse and Lana Del Rey. Her background and experience in music leans into her dynamic performance in which audiences can escape into a world of magical stories that channel both fantasy and her own personal experiences.
In 2020 right at the start of the pandemic, Lina’s life changed dramatically with the loss of her uncle to suicide in which she penned one of her biggest tracks to date “Off Guard.” Since then she uses her platform to help raise awareness for mental health and suicide prevention.
2022 brought the release of Lina’s debut EP “Introspection” which is an introduction into her mind and thoughts that also flawlessly showcases her strong skills in songwriting. The first single “Fantasy,” which features a music video out now, is an airy, flowy track that provides a perfect escape from reality and brings you into her whimsical world.
Lina plans to tour and release more music and content this upcoming year. Follow her journey and stay posted for updates via socials. Stream “Introspection” now available on all streaming platforms. YOU TUBE INSTAGRAM
