Pairing fatalistic lyrics with shiny alt-pop arrangements that are as infectious as they are unpredictable has seen the quick ascension of 23-year old Baltimore native mazie. Her single "dumb dumb," which appears on her debut EP the rainbow cassette, is a perfect embodiment of mazie's multilayered, psychedelic twist on pop that's Stepford Wives meets Lisa Frank.
