Mirabelle Skipworth is an alt-folk songwriter living in Pittsburgh, PA, who has been playing her songs out for the past decade. Traveling around with her folk-inspired melodies sprinkled with an alt-rock tinge, her songs aim to take the audience on an emotive, dynamic, and sensitive journey. She draws from her own experiences, books, and observations.
With music already out and about (such as singles: “The Deer Song” and “Scary Story”), she is currently on the brink of releasing a new album, When The Waters Part (Feb. 13th). The album attacks themes dealing with how religion often instills a complicated relationship with love and intimacy. Recorded entirely live, the album strips these messages and the emotions that are attached to them down to their core.
Mirabelle is a community builder who regularly hosts songwriter meet-ups and events in Pittsburgh, PA, while also continually expanding her touring network. For her, music is centered around community and the inspiration that continually flows from that. In the making of her newest album, she wanted the recording process to reflect that… recorded with her closest community and captured in its most natural form.
