Since winning NPR Music’s Tiny Desk Contest in 2016, Gaelynn Lea has captivated audiences around the world with her haunting original songs and traditional fiddle tunes. Over the years, she has collaborated with artists such as Michael Stipe, The Decemberists, Wilco, LOW, and the industrial rock supergroup Pigface.
Thanks to a recent Whippoorwill Arts Fellowship, her “Scottish Play” soundtrack is finally being released and she'll be performing excerpts of it during her UK Tour.
One of Gaelynn Lea’s biggest passions is promoting Disability Culture. She co-founded RAMPD [Recording Artists and Music Professionals with Disabilities] in 2022 and has since connected with d/Deaf and disabled artists globally, including Ruth Lyon and James Holt in the UK.
