Ailbhe Reddy is an Irish indie folk singer-songwriter from Dublin living in London. An artist who finds strength in sensitivity and embraces the full power of a moment. Ailbhe Reddy has a talent for crafting intensely moving alt-folk tunes. On her debut album Personal History, the Irish artist blurs the boundaries between personal and universal experiences to strike emotional chords with her relatable lyricism and uniquely tender vocals. ‘That Girl’ follows the album's previously released singles ‘So Quickly, Baby’ and ‘Align’. Ailbhe's album Kiss Big unfolds as a breakup record - but not the tidy, acoustic kind. It lives in the messy middle: the disorienting period when the life you built with someone collapses, and you’re left trying to figure out who you are on your own. Written between Dublin, London, New York and the American Midwest, Kiss Big traces the cycle of love, loss, and renewal. It’s raw and wry: the sound of coming apart and gluing yourself back together.
