Gaelynn Lea Live Performance

Gaelynn Lea is the 2016 winner of National Public Radio's Tiny Desk Contest. Gaelynn also performs with Murder of Crows along with band mate, Alan Sparhawk of Low. 

Gaelynn Lea has been actively performing since 2006, both solo and with a number of musical projects in Minnesota. Currently Gaelynn is on tour performing solo sets of her haunting original songs sprinkled with experimental fiddle tunes; her aim is to create a meditative, layered sound that allows the listener’s mind to drift.

"Karen Dalton and Joanna Newsom melt together in the form of Gaelynn Lea and set about absolutely obliterating your heart." -Dan Auerbach (The Black Keys)

"The way her voice resonates is so unusual and beautiful, like nothing I've ever heard before." -Jess Wolfe (Lucius)
