Mary Fahl of October Project

 Mary Fahl is back ……. armed only with her guitar, that unforgettable voice and a whole new array of original songs. Alone on a stage, her uncluttered performances reveal what is essential about Fahl as an artist - genuine honesty and emotion, captivating melodies, and songs built around big ideas rooted in what it is to be human."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 cult band October Project, an East Coast chamber-pop group that recorded two poetic albums for Epic, selling over 300,000 albums. Since her "October Project" days, Fahl has written and performed songs for several major motion pictures, including the lead song (“Going Home”) for the Warner Bros. Civil War epic “Gods and Generals” and recorded solo albums for Sony Classical and V2 Records, including her recently released re-imagining of the Pink Floyd classic, “Dark Side of the Moon”. Mary Fahl defies stereotypes and that may be her greatest strength. Her elegant, cinematic songs draw on classical and world music sources, American art song, as well as thinking man’s folk-pop. The one constant in Mary’s varied career is a deeply passionate, soul-searching voice that Steve Morse of the Boston Globe dubbed “A voice for the gods”. With a myriad of powerful new songs that she’s written over the past few months, coupled with October Project favorites and a mix of songs from her recorded albums, Fahl is back on tour, continuing to take audiences on a journey of emotional discovery and “transport listeners to other realms” (Boston Globe).
