The Inspirational Clich For Aspiring Artists Is 'The Sky's The Limit,' Except For Union Town Singer And Songwriter Maryam Qudus, The Sky May Simply Become A View From The Ladder Of Success She Soon Sits Upon.
The motivational clich for hopeful artists is "the sky's the limit," but for Union Town singer and songwriter Maryam Qudus, the sky may simply become a view from the ladder of success she shortly sits on.
At twenty years of age , Qudus, who performs under the moniker Doe Eye, is making noise delicate, haunting noise in the Bay Area music scene.
She released her debut EP, Run Run Run, last month to high praise from indie music blogs and websites.
"Since then, things have occurred terribly fast," she said. "The reply has been amazing."
Her lead single, "I Hate You," has started receiving spins on Live105, the number 1 rock radio stations in the Bay Area. The video for the track, which debuted online the same day as her EP's release on August. 19, was subsequently featured on the station's website, along with lots of other music blogs.
Produced by Steven Murr, you would not know that the record was made with small assistance from outside musicians. Qudus is the sole vocalist and guitar player heard on the record, with a guest drummer on two tracks. All other instruments were made digitally by Murr to make a polished, fine quality indie-folk production.
In its abruptness, the four-track EP reveals Qudus's vulnerabilities, hopes and needs, wrapped in her alluring vocals that even make the words "I hate you" sound captivating.
"I like to create something out of my emotions," she revealed. Her feelings go from the bold and mutinous lead single to the somber and upbeat dreamscape of "Sea to See"
"The scars on my feet / It is the strength I will keep / Through the ghastly and beauty that lies ahead," she sings on "Sea to See."
"It's about being held back and wanting to let go of things you're terrified of, taking possibilities and not being scared of doing something because you'd get hurt," she said of the track.
That lack of fear and unbending determination are what set Qudus' career in motion at an early age.
She's had a taste for singing for as long as she can remember, but didn't get serious about playing music until she was in middle school, where she picked up the guitar and learned on her own, she revealed.
"I'm not the best guitar strummer, but I know enough to draft songs off it," related Qudus, who owns 3 guitars, a bass, keyboard and tambourine.
Driven to make a job of music, she started stumping up for her own voice lessons at sixteen after getting a part time job. "Every greenback I made went to that," she announced.
Last year, she attempted to write one new song a day. "I didn't pressure myself. It did not have to be good. I couldn't keep it up, but it taught me a lot," she said.
She took those "skeletons" of songs to Murr. "He took those ideas and made them bigger," she claimed,writes tagza.com.
The last two months have been the "craziest" for her, she claimed.
In the last 2 weeks of July, she recorded and completed her EP. Right after, director Adrien Colon filmed the noire-like black-and-white video for her single
While she is excited for the openings that may come from her up to date exposure, she is not playing the waiting game. Instead , she is pushing forward with her education to further develop her craft.
Next weekend, Qudus packs her life into four huge suitcases and sets for the east coast to attend the Berklee College of Music in Boston. She already plans to assemble a band and tour the coast, and return routinely for spot dates in the Bay Area.
"My career will only improve from here," she said. "There's more songs to come."
By next summer, she is hoping to perform at Live105's BFD and the Outside Lands festivals, a couple of the largest music festivals in the Bay Area.
"I think I can make it happen," she said.
