The Mya Byrne Band are three queer trans women from Brooklyn with influences ranging from Arlo Guthrie, Brittany Howard, and Leadbelly to Minutemen, Dead Milkmen, Uncle Tupelo, and the Who. Mya’s 2023 debut on Kill Rock Stars, “Rhinestone Tomboy”, definitively queered Americana music in a way that took her by surprise, with features in Rolling Stone, No Depression, and more. Featuring Swan Real (of 99% Invisible) on drums and standout newcomer Jamilah Sandoto on bass, the three channel their influences in true power trio tradition, calling down the moon, making asses shake, making you somehow laugh and cry simultaneously. It’s a vibe.
