"Going in, we said 'lets make a bad ass indie rock record with a sound as big and dynamic as we can, without compromising one single heartfelt lyric." Singer-songwriter Heather Maloney did just that on her newest LP, Making Me Break. Working with Grammy-nominated producer Bill Reynolds (Band of Horses, Avett Brothers), the two crafted and delivered an artistic vision that merges folk roots with indie rock. Heather's new music has a definite edge, but it also has her classically trained voice and well-crafted lyrics informed by her formal study of opera, jazz and classical Indian vocals. After a stint as a NYC jazz singer, she moved to a silent meditation retreat center in Central Massachusetts for nearly 3 years, taking vows of silence from seven to ten days at a time. The silence helped her find her true voice. Armed with her guitar and a fresh sense of purpose, Maloney gigged around the Northeast for a couple years before signing with Signature Sounds (Lake Street Dive, Josh Ritter), sharing stages with Shakey Graves, Mary Chapin Carpenter and Anais Mitchell, and creating a celebrated collaboration with Darlingside. Her distinctive voice has soared a long way from the silent confines of hushed meditation, and into a natural equilibrium of progressive Indie-Folk. Mission Accomplished.
