With a vocal described as having “a purity to it that we rarely hear” (Ear to the Ground Music), Biologist-turned-Singer/Songwriter Maggie Pope pairs an ethereal voice with expressive songwriting. 

On January 25th, 2019, she released a 5-song collection of organic, home-recorded folk tunes on the Winding Way Records label… it was a humble endeavor that started on a quiet night in June of the previous year, when she recorded the songs within the walls of a modest bedroom closet, so as not to wake her children who slept just down the hall. 

The tracks eventually made their way into the hands of Shani Gandhi, Grammy-winning producer and engineer, who mixed the EP and polished up the songs before release.

This debut solo offering, June Tapes, resonated authentically with listeners, many of whom noted a nostalgic quality to her vocals that seemed to hold a sensitivity and texture that harkened back to voices the likes of Eva Cassidy or Joan Baez. 

The summer of 2021 will bring a flood of fresh releases from Maggie Pope. Some lushly produced, exploring more complex arrangements and collaborations with other artists, and some with a nod back to the organic balladry of June Tapes; the simple, sparse acoustic sounds that mark the musical place from which she came.

Look for the first single, The Bird Painter, produced by Steve Varney, frontman of Kid Reverie, and banjoist/guitarist for Gregory Alan Isakov, to hit streaming services June 25th.

﻿Maggie writes and performs both a solo artist and as a member of the Folk/Americana band, Under the Oak.

What would  life be like without music? Flat; colourless; unbearable.
Piano keys reached out for me at age five and have embraced me tight ever since. I began playing publicly in my teens way back when. In more recent years, life pushed me to the proverbial edge and songwriting caught me on the way down. Life is certainly not flat or colourless and in writing songs, I hope to do my part to make it more than just bearable for us all.
But here’s a question…why do lyrics whisper most loudly at 1 a.m.?!?
