Inspired by Sade, Norah Jones, and Alicia Keys, Maylyn Murphy's silky, soulful voice expresses love, joy, and sadness with the finesse of a master painter and the mood-spinning emotions of a midnight moon.Maylyn projects a strong belief in herself with the coolness of her delivery. On the title track of her new album Body & Soul, Maylyn sounds self-confident and strong without dipping into pop-radio clichés. Another singer would most likely raise her voice with a bratty or bitchy demeanor, but Maylyn's approach is more subtle. Maylyn isn't in your face; rather, she's whispering in your ear. On "Love Will Keep Us" and "You & I", Maylyn hits the sexual regions of her voice. Without consciously trying to be erotic, Maylyn melts the microphone with the heartbreaking prettiness of her singing. Maylyn's break-up song, "Move On", has her accepting her fate and going further with her life, unveiling a mature outlook that many young artists have yet to develop. The final song, "My Goodbye", finds Maylyn at her most moving. There is an undeniable spiritual quality to this crestfallen ballad about a loved one's passing. Maylyn's sense of mourning is balanced by her belief in God, and the overall tone - as with "Move On" - is of better days ahead.Maylyn has been a musician since she was 9, when she taught herself how to play piano. By the time she was 14, Maylyn was winning singing competitions in Japan, where she attended high school. Maylyn's culturally diverse childhood - she was taught how to speak Tagalog in the Philippines; Japanese in Yokohama; and English in California - is reflected in the diverse, exotic make-up of her music, which draws from jazz, R&B, soul, and the blues. At the age of 18, Maylyn relocated to the U.S. from Japan to pursue her dreams of becoming a pop star. She was accepted in the Berklee College of Music in Boston and also performed with renowned artists such as Usher, Diddy, and LL Cool J.After graduation, Maylyn continued to play with local bands, modeled part time for MTM and even hosted a local TV program, International Rhythms.
