Coming And Going is the ffth release from Mas Aya, pseudonym of acclaimed Nicaraguan-Canadian composer, producer, and musician Brandon Miguel Valdivia - Over the past twenty years Valdivia has emerged as one of the most prolifc and respected musicians in Canada 

In 2021 Valdivia's breakthrough LP as Mas Aya, Mascaras, ushered in a new era

With warm reception from the likes of Pitchfork, Rolling Stone, the New York Times, and NPR it shed new and long- overdue light on his inventive compositional outlook.

Coming And Going is the follow-up to Mascaras and, much like its predecessor, it represents yet another colossal shift in Mas Aya's creative journey. The fact that its title is so evocative of fux is no mistake; it's an album that teems with subtle contradiction and restless intrigue, all the while carving pathways toward the reconciliation of these opposing sonic and thematic forces.

It's this very plurality that makes Coming And Going Valdivia's most intimate and personal effort to date. The music refects upon community, family, the nature of home, and spirituality.
