‘Mayah continues to impress with her unique style and haunting vocals. Her growth is astounding and this track proves it.’

Mayah explains; “Indecisive is about being able to move on from broken relationships in a healthy way. The white wolf symbolises independence, strength, freedom, and free-spiritedness and this song is about finding your inner wolf and releasing the negativity that limits you and holds you back.”
‘Indecisive’ sees Mayah dip her toes into the world of deep drum’n’bass, using her RnB-tinged vocal merged with atmospheric synths, to touch on the ethereal.
This is a track that easily stirs up late night get-in-touch-with-your-inner-animal
stylings.’
