“Sounding like no other singer of her generation” (Allmusic.com),
Mary Fahl is an expressive, emotional singer/songwriter who first
achieved fame as lead singer and co-founder of the mid-1990s NYC-based
chamber-pop group OCTOBER PROJECT. The hallmark of their sound was
Mary Fahl's awe-inspiring power vocals over gorgeous melodies played
with passion and sophistication. As a solo artist, Mary has released
several compelling albums, including the fantastic re-working of Pink
Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon" for V2 Records; her wonderful,
original studio album "The Other Side of Time" on Sony Odyssey; and
her acclaimed album “Love and Gravity”. She has also written and
performed songs for several major motion pictures, including the lead
song (“Going Home”) for the Civil War epic Gods and Generals. Now
Mary returns with her album “Live at the Mauch Chunk Opera House”,
a collection of twenty-three tracks recorded live at one of America's
oldest vaudeville theaters and winner of the Indie Acoustic Award for
multi-genre “Album of the Year”. The show was filmed for PBS and
is currently airing around the country. Fahl’s elegant, cinematic
songs draw on classical and world music sources, American art song, as
well as thinking man’s folk-pop which she performs with an earthy,
viscerally powerful contralto that Boston Globe critic Steve Morse
calls “a voice for the gods that can transport listeners to other
realms”. Her upcoming performance will include “Exiles”, a song
written for Anne Rice’s new audiobook “The Wolves of Midwinter”,
a stunning cover of the Joni Mitchell classic “Both Sides Now”,
and many October Project favorites. —————— Passim
