MAY-A

Catch MAY-A at La La La’s, presented by Great Southern Nights.

With her sharp lyricism, genre-bending experimentation, and captivating stage presence, MAY-A is one of Australia’s most exciting singer-songwriters of the moment. Once just a teen writing confessional bedroom-pop songs like others would confide in a diary, the Australian singer-songwriter has evolved her artistry to create a sound that’s entirely her own in her debut studio album, Goodbye (If You Call That Gone) — confidently blending guitar-led pop, indie, rock and punk stylings with ever-relatable lyrical honesty.

At the core of her identity as an artist is her desire to speak directly to fans, empowering them by offering comfort, self-reflection and joy ever since she broke out with the tender song “Apricots” in 2021. That intention translates through her vulnerable lyrics — and through the passion she wears on her sleeve when she plays live. A favourite on the Australian festival circuit, MAY-A has earned her stripes playing at Falls Festival, Splendour in the Grass, Spilt Milk, Lost Paradise and more.

Great Southern Nights 2026 takes place from 1-17 May featuring over 300 gigs across Sydney and New South Wales.
