Heidi Talbot is an Irish folk singer and songwriter whose crystalline voice and artful storytelling have captivated audiences worldwide. Born in the rural village of Kill, County Kildare, Ireland, Talbot embarked on her musical journey at a very young age. After honing her craft in Ireland, she spread her wings to Scotland where she became the lead singer of the renowned folk band Cherish the Ladies. It was with them she gained international recognition and experience, but her desire to pursue a solo career led to her departure and the subsequent release of her debut solo album, "Distant Future," in 2003.

Talbot's solo work is a testament to her skillful blend of traditional influences and contemporary flair. With a discography that includes albums such as "In Love + Light," "The Last Star," and "Angels Without Wings," Heidi has established herself as a prominent figure in the folk music scene. Her voice acts as a conduit for emotional narratives, and her ability to resonate with listeners is evident in more thematic releases like "Christmas In September" and the enchanting "When Will You Return/Oh Little Town." Heidi's talent for creating a deep connection through her music is also showcased in the live recording, "The Mark Radcliffe Folk Sessions: Heidi Talbot." Whether through plaintive balladry or uplifting tunes, Heidi Talbot's music offers a tender exploration of the human heart, bridging the gaps between love, loss, and hope with timeless grace.
