Maya Hawke stole the show in the new season of Stranger Things as Steve’s sarcastic Scoops Ahoy co-worker Robin, and it turns out she’s a girl of many talents. The young actress is also an aspiring musician, and she recently shared her first two single with the world.

Hawke wrote her first two songs “To Love a Boy“ and “Stay Open” alongside Grammy Award-winning songwriter Jesse Harris, and she’s currently plotting a full-length album, due to be released later this year.

“This is a passion project for me; I have loved singing, writing lyrics and music since I can remember. For the last two years, Jesse and I have worked on these songs, and we are really excited to finally share them with an audience,” said the multi-talented artist in a statement.

Her upcoming album isn’t the only thing keeping Maya Hawke busy right now. She recently appeared in Quentin Tarantino’s film Once Upon a Time … in Hollywood, and landed key roles in dramas Mainstream and Human Capital.
