One of the most consistent qualities you’ll find about Las Vegas artists is that either they, or their families, are often from different areas of the country, and sometimes the world. Despite this, Las Vegas carries a certain aura that encourages transplants to sew their roots and feel at home in the desert. Calling a combination of Los Angeles, Minnesota and Las Vegas home, rising singer Maejoy understands this notion perfectly, as she’s utilized her vast network to help get her music some shine. Looking to take things further, she steps into our pages for the first time with her engaging new video for, “Top Down.”

Directed by Duke Vano, the video follows Maejoy throughout downtown Las Vegas as she happily frolics through the area with her love interest. Buoyed by a nostalgic lens that drives home that classic Las Vegas feel made popular in early movies about the area, Maejoy does a wonderful job of meshing these qualities with the record itself. Produced by fellow Noir Movement member, Jeremy Elises, “Top Down,” finds Maejoy bringing together many of the qualities that have made her an artist to keep tabs on. Over euphoric drum-breaks and guitar melodies that sound enchanted, Maejoy takes her time showcasing her strong vocal range, instead starting the song placing emphasis on her lyrics. As the record progresses, she transitions from being laid-back and letting the music come to her into eagerly taking control of the melodic progression and flexing her abilities as a trained vocalist.
