Inside the #myahverse: a medieval fairytale of pop and pain

myah — a name written in lowercase but sounding like a film soundtrack through darkness and light. Once the silent eye behind stunning visuals for The Marias, 24k Goldn, Kehlani, and more, she now steps into her own frame, voice and vision intertwined. In 2025, she steps fully into her own spotlight, creating sound the way she once created scenes — with a touch that turns fleeting moments into timelessness daydreams.

From the sun-baked noise of South Florida emerge myah's songs, taking up the fraught middle ground of indie rock grit, pop sheen, and the retro longing of Midwest emo guitars. Yeah Yeah Yeahs on a rainy afternoon, Modest Mouse in a bright room — familiar, yet unapologetically hers. Her lyrics are doors left open to her history, but never so specific that you can't walk through and make them your own.

Now, with her latest single "dodging bullets", myah takes up her pen and her shield. This narrative song turns the old adage on its head, posing the bruising question: "Why does dodging bullets hurt me?" It's indie melodic pop rock in all its vulnerability and rawness — a song for every individual who's ever dodged something and received the dodge wounds instead.

And fittingly, she's bringing the tale to life in a medieval epic music video filmed on location in Wexford, Ireland's lush green, which premiered the same day as the single — June 20th. In myah's universe, every note is a confession, every chorus a subtle defiance. She refuses to use pronouns, so whoever is listening can become the knight, the outlaw, or battered heart beneath armor. When she is not penning such vulnerability anthems, she can be seen driving around town with a croissant in tow, daydreaming about her next cinematic escape. Welcome to the #myahverse — where stories leave their scars, music does their healing, and even bullets dodged leave their mark.
