In 2020, Zietsch said "I was raised from birth in quite a restrictive religious household" in Lismore, New South Wales. She moved to Melbourne to be "ensconced in the music community".[1][2] She moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico in 2024.[citation needed]

Career

2017: Seavera

Zietsch partnered up with childhood friend, producer Daniel Pinkerton and formed Seavera, pairing acoustic guitars with dramatic electronics.[1] In late 2017 Seavera won the very first Pie School initiative and worked with the team from Pieater to record a song that never released. Seavera parted ways soon after. Zietsch relocated to Brighton, England and began work on solo material.[1][2]

Zietsch returned to Melbourne in late 2019 with numerous demos written while she was living in Brighton.[3] She enlisted Tom Iansek to record, mix and produce the first batch of songs and was signed to Pieater.[4]

In April 2021, Maple Glider announced the release of her debut studio album, alongside the third single "Swimming". In a press release, the artist said the album takes inspiration from vignettes of her life and the perspectives that travel has given her.[5]
