Sinead Fahey
Sinead Angele is a singer/songwriter currently based in St. Louis, Missouri. As a child, she would sing in between sets of the bands that would play at her dad’s pub in her hometown of Baltimore, Maryland. That is where she began developing a passion for performing. Throughout grade school, she joined any and every choir she could, and occasionally tried her hand at musical theater. She began writing her own songs at the age of 9 and was self-recording and uploading her original works to Myspace by age 16. Her songs were and continue to be very autobiographical, capturing deep emotions surrounding love and loss and all things in between.
Over the last decade, Sinead has collaborated with several indie artists but she has most recently released her first official solo EP. She teamed up with longtime friend and co-writer Matthew Kruft to produce the project. The EP is titled “Finally” and chronicles her struggles with mental health and her experience with finally finding some sense of peace. Sinead and Matthew are currently working on her second solo EP which will be centered around the theme of self-sabotage.
