The turntable in The Cromwell household spun constantly. Mae Grew up singing along to a rich mixture music. The R&B and Funk classics she listened to in the 60's and 70's had a major and lasting impact on her.

Family and Friends encouraged Mae to pursue a singing career but she focused on completing high school and then moving to Toronto and attended York University for a while. She switched to George Brown College and completed the hairdressing course. Mae then launched a successful daytime career as much in demand hair stylist.

In 1995 a friend asked Mae to do some background vocals on a demo and the experienced reignited her passion for singing and performing. Within 2 years, Mae fronted her own band and between playing regular bar gigs and her hairdressing clients she became a must have act for private events.
