Maple Glider is the stage name of Tori Zietsch, a Melbourne-based singer-songwriter whose ethereal music captures the intricacies of life, love, and the vulnerable spaces in between. Zietsch's artistic journey as Maple Glider began to take significant shape with the release of her singles and her critically acclaimed album, "To Enjoy is the Only Thing," in 2021. The album showcases her ability to blend whispery folk with raw emotional narratives, creating a delicate yet powerful sonic experience. Her poignant lyrics, combined with her soft, haunting vocal delivery, invite listeners into a deeply personal space, one that reflects the universal experiences of human connection and personal transformation.

Before embarking on her solo project, Zietsch was part of the duo Seavera, where she began honing her craft in songwriting and performance. After disbanding, she ventured into her Maple Glider project, a move that allowed her more personal expression and exploration. With songs like "As Tradition," "Good Thing," and "I Get Into Trouble," Zietsch delves into themes of love, loss, and the search for identity, making use of minimalist arrangements that highlight her vocal strength and emotional depth. Maple Glider's music, while deeply introspective, possesses a universal appeal, resonating with listeners who find solace and understanding within her melodies. As she continues to evolve and push the boundaries of her sound, Maple Glider solidifies her place as a compelling voice in the indie music scene.
