About the Artist
Heather Mae isn’t just writing songs—she’s writing revolutions. A genre-defying powerhouse with unflinching honesty and a rabble-rousing spirit, she blends the grit of alternative Americana, the hooks of indie pop, and the depth of folk to create anthems for outsiders, survivors, and seekers of radical joy. Her music holds space for those navigating mental health, queer liberation, racial justice, and deep personal transformation. Mae’s accolades include winning the Rocky Mountain Folks Fest Songwriter Showcase and being named Artist-Activist of the Year by NERFA, but her true impact lives in her live shows—often described as “church without the religious trauma.” With each performance, she creates intentional, affirming space for healing, joy, and resistance. Her music is a battle cry, a balm, and a bold reminder: we’re not alone—and we’re not going anywhere.
