“Impeccable, confident folk from an artist with alternative rock roots, Aerynn writes songs with grace and intrigue. ”
Aerynn Short Bio.
Performing in theatres, clubs, pubs, festivals, forests, coffee shops, bars, boat yards, living rooms, streets, churches, meadows, marketplaces and even a former bordello, Aerynn embraces the troubadour approach of storytelling and raw emotional expression through her songs.
Writing as a coping mechanism and response to real human experiences from Oregon to Hawaii, Boston to the UK and perhaps outer space, Aerynn weaves alternative rock roots into modern acoustic folk in melancholy yet hope-filled stories from her life, lives that she's witnessed, and a few she has yet to see.
Having left a career in Astrophysics, she now creates, lives and teaches music in Macclesfield, United Kingdom and is currently sprinkling the last few notes into a full-length album with producer Mark Winterburn, due for imminent release in 2023! Join the journey and subscribe to her beloved email community, online at www.aerynn.com, or socials @aerynnmusic.
Aerynn's latest Americana single Four Places (2021) was awarded a Finalist position in the UK Songwriting Competition in the top 2% of over 10,000 entries. Notable performances include a feature at the Leek Arts Festival, sets at Leek Blues & Americana Festival, Middlewich Folk and Boat Festival, Macclesfield's Barnaby Festival, Dublin's YouBloom Festival, Manchester Americana Festival, and the Open Mic UK's Songwriting Contest Regional Final at RNCM Manchester.
