Hope Mayo: singer-songwriter

CD Reviews

"Wahiawa's Hope Mayo's "End of the Day." If you're looking to soothe your nerves from traffic, work or just life, this is perfect. Similar to Shelby Lynne. Great voice." - Honolulu Advertiser

"She has one of those interesting, arresting voices that instantly catches the ear - sultry and seductive without sounding like she’s trying to sound that way." - Honolulu Star Bulletin

"Taking cues from Norah Jones and Nancy Wilson, End Of The Day is bluesy, slow burning lounge music primed for moments of introspection. Mayo’s voice, reedy and sinuous, is often used to playfully scolding effect. It’s smoky without sounding weary - infectiously tuneful." - Honolulu Weekly

"On debut End of the Day, singer/songwriter Hope Mayo serves up a solid collection of blues-y folk originals. The sound is light and sweet, the lyrics earnest, and Mayo’s voice imparts fizz even to such lines as, “Roses are red, violets are blue; Baby, I just called to say I love you.” It’s all relatively straight forward stuff, but if you dig relaxing tunes in the style of Norah Jones, Mayo is worth checking out." - Honolulu Magazine

Artist Reviews

"I am one of Hope’s biggest fans! She has a way of writing and singing that engages you. So intimate, honest, and sincere. Her songs poetically capture life’s simple truths and her delicate angelic voice tells her story in a way only she can."

- Daniel Ho
(Grammy award-winning artist/producer)

"If you haven't heard Hope perform, then you haven’t been out much. This woman knocked my socks off the first time I saw her, and she was only doing a solo gig! The music is fresh, the voice is magic, and her delivery is impeccable. Be adventurous, be curious, I promise you will be pleasantly surprised."

- Kenneth Makuakane
(Hoku award-winning producer/songwriter)
