“A diva in the best sense of the word… a powerful, emotive vocalist who employs her wide range and dramatic flair in a way that never seems hammy or contrived.” - Billboard

With “a voice for the gods that can transport listeners to other realms” (Boston Globe), Mary Fahl makes music that feels timeless, esoteric and ecumenical. Her elegant, cinematic songs have a hauntingly gothic romanticism that inspired renowned writer Anne Rice to portray Mary’s voice emanating from a dead woman’s room in her 2013 novel The Wolves of Midwinter…

Fahl first achieved fame as lead singer and co-founder of the mid-1990s NYC- based chamber-pop group October Project—a band known for lush harmonies, sweeping melodies and Fahl’s unique and strong vocals. As a solo artist, Fahl went on to pursue her own muse, whether that meant writing and recording songs for movies (including the theme for the Civil War epic “Gods and Generals”), singing arias and medieval Spanish songs for Sony Classical, or releasing a unique album-length take on “Dark Side of the Moon”…

“Her live shows pulse with emotion and energy,” according to Music Tap. “Expect a fine mix of originals, clever covers, and a dip back into the October Project’s history.”
