Moira Smiley

Living in: United States

Moira Smiley is a Singer / Composer who creates and performs new work for voices. A musical polyglot, and vocal shape-shifter, her voice - and composing - are heard on feature films, BBC & PBS television programs, NPR, and on more than 60 albums. She accompanies herself with banjo, accordion, piano and percussive movement, and when she's not leading her own group, moira smiley & VOCO, Moira has toured with Indie artist tUnE-yArDs, Irish super-group, Solas, The Lomax Project and Billy Childs' "Laura Nyro Re-Imagined". She's also toured with Paul Hillier's Theater of Voices and KITKA. Recent solo performances include TED, Stravinsky's 'Les Noces', the London Proms Festival, features on BBC Radio3, and ABC Australia's Books & Arts programs. Moira's recordings feature spare, vocally driven collections of warped traditional songs, original polyphony and body percussion.

In 2018, she released a solo album and choral songbook called 'Unzip The Horizon'.
