With a voice like complex coffee, Gráinne Hunt enchants audiences with her heart-melting vocals and emotional songs, making her a standout among Ireland's vocalists and songwriters.
Her two original records, delve into personal experiences, evoking pain and longing, and comparisons have been drawn to Tracy Chapman, Natalie Merchant, and Dolores Keane. Gráinne’s latest original album ‘This Secret’ (2019 was recorded in Nashville, with Grammy nominated Thomm Jutz) - she writes from a powerful place with lyrics that tell of pain, hurt, desire, all the hallmarks of scarred relationships making her truth resonate with her listeners.
Her music feels like a cathartic expression that has enabled her to move on, move forward.
‘A natural performer, Grainne Hunt commands an astounding voice that will melt your heart. No crowd can resist.’ Declan O’Rourke Songwriter, Author
