MAPLE’S PET DINOSAUR SIGNS EXCLUSIVELY TO NEW WORLD ARTISTS FOR LIVE TOURING.
New World Artists is proud to announce the signing of Maple’s Pet Dinosaur, the 14 year-old teenage artist from Newcastle, for exclusive live touring representation across Australia and New Zealand.
14-year-old Maple & her band exploded out of the garage and into the global spotlight with debut single ‘Lego’ (released August 13, 2025). What began as a no-budget experiment, filming a music video on a neighbour’s doorbell ring camera quickly turned into a viral phenomenon in the past 2 weeks.
- 50 Million + Instagram Views and rising
- 2 Million + TikTok Views and rising
- 40K + Spotify streams and rising, within the first fortnight, with international listeners clocking in from Europe, the US, Brazil and Greece.
‘Lego’ is Maple’s bully diss track: fierce, riff-driven and unapologetic. Built on a swaggering groove and heavy guitars inspired by Beastie Boys, Faith No More, The Melvins and L7, it blends near-rap verses with an anthemic chorus that has become an instant shout-along.
“This isn’t a throwback” Maple explains. “I want to tell real stories about being a teenager today, especially a teenage girl. Writing this song gave me the strength to set boundaries and find my people. Now I want to build that community further through the music.”
Australian National youth broadcaster triple j was early to the party, with spins on Late Nights (Emmy Mack) and Home and Hosed (Anika Luna). Triple M Home Grown (Matt O’Gorman) followed by a national rotation add to the station, whilst Rolling Stone AU/NZ praised the track’s energy, & Life Without Andy called Maple “full of rage” and “way beyond her years.” International media and radio stations from New York to Greece to Brazil have already picked it up. Spotify jumped on the track adding it to their esteemed taste-maker playlist Fresh Finds and Apple jumped early including ‘lego’ on multiple rock playlists. Seeing the unusual virality across Instagram, Meta have since engaged Maple to create a global content campaign around the song.
“Edwin and the team at New World have helped build and guide the live careers of so many killer Australian artists and I’m pumped to be on the roster. It’s important as a young artist that I’m with a team that will support the band and I as we grow into bigger stages, and I couldn’t be more confident that I’m in the right place.” – Maple
“We are very excited about working with Maple and rapidly rolling out a live strategy designed to build resilience, developing road hardened performance skills and experienced stage craft, growing a live following at a pace that is sustainable for such a young musician.” – Edwin Tehrani
New World Artists can’t wait to watch Maple’s Pet Dinosaur explode live. Catch the band while they’re still young and fearless.
