Sarah Buckley

Sarah Buckley is an alt-folk artist from Cork, Ireland. A unique and intriguing songwriter, she gained immediate attention with the release of her debut single 'You’ve Got Me' (1.3 million radio impressions). She built on this success with support from the Arts Council and released her debut EP 'Magic Powers', and her sophomore EP, ‘Wind Chimes’, produced by Karl Odlum (David Kitt, Gemma Hayes). Having been selected to take part in the ‘Creative Moves Europe’ project, Sarah has been able to spend time in Berlin working on her music which has led to German tour dates and live radio performances.

Inspired by the world-class lyricism of Alex Turner, the introspective songwriting of Matt Berninger and the uncompromising authenticity of Julia Jacklin – Sarah manages to avoid the trap of imitating her heroes; instead, she channels their influence into something rare and immediately compelling.

Sarah has steadily built a reputation for her evocative songwriting and distinctive voice, earning radio play, festival slots, and recognition for her artistry. Her upcoming work delves into themes of self-doubt, chaos, and finding clarity in the dark, capturing the emotional depth that has become her signature.
