Recognised as a purveyor of dreamier pop with folky leanings, Brigid Mae Power is set to release her new album this summer. Dream From The Deep Well is a departure; a unique marriage of traditional stylings and very modern melodies; a breath-taking soundtrack which underpins her gorgeous vocal.
“The Irish singer-songwriter flits between past and present; between traditional and modern forms; between the heaven in her voice and the earthbound epiphanies of her words.” Pitchfork
Filled with personal tales of offspring and grandparents, the lovelorn and the lost, it’s the essence of re-imagined folk music. Modern folk for modern folk, Brigid’s evocative vocals alongside strings, steel guitar, horns and mellotron adds to the baroque loveliness whilst waving back at her rootsy past, daubing new colours on a much-loved canvas.
Brigid’s fourth album is a new visionary beginning for the gifted songwriter and her most complete album to date.
After two lauded albums for Tompkins Square, Power signed to Fire Records releasing her autobiographical, highly acclaimed album? Head Above The Water in 2020. Her last record was a coming of age opus that featured a ground-breaking amalgamation of traditional folk and country.

Skilfully interpreting songs from Didn’t It Rain (Songs: Ohia), Aretha Franklin and Patsy Cline on her 2021 EP Burning Your Light; Brigid brings hope and reverence to classic songs that unquestionably exhibit her love of the art of song writing which is perfectly illustrated.
Politically primed and socially aware, the Irish musician has found power in her extraordinary voice and been able to embroider into a musical tapestry that’s melancholy and wonderfully consuming.
