ANNIE FITZGERALD’S’s music has been described as “a blend of Tori Amos’ intellectual appeal, Sarah McLachlan’s mystical charm and Edie Brickell’s baroque spirit” (Jamsphere). Since the release of her first EP in 2005, Annie has released two full length records, numerous singles, been honored by the Songwriters Hall of Fame as an artist to watch, and was a part of the NYC indie scene before she welcomed a move back to her home & community in Minnesota with it a newfound sense of space to create. Her songs have been featured numerous times as Song of the Day on the Current, and her 2023 single release “Anam Cara” was on the ballot for the Currents’ Top 89 Songs of 2023. Annie is also a Sound Therapist and Reiki Practitioner, and facilitates regular Sound Journey Meditations at the Hewing Hotel, St. Mark’s Cathedral, and several other venues around the Twin Cities metro.
