Hi! My name is Deirdre Forrest and Im a singer-songwriter living in Ocean Grove, NJ. I have collaborated with different artists of varying genres, supplying co-lead, harmonies and backing vocals and I am looking for session work. My songs are up on Reverbnation/deirdreforrest And this is a link to the most recent co-lead vocal collaboration with Brandon Kiefer of The Places Youve Been: kieferandfriends.bandcamp/ And this is a video of an original song, Leaving Lullaby: youtube/watch?v=xjZv9VfZW68&feature=youtube_gdata_player Deirdre Forrest is an emerging singer-songwriter with distinct vocal qualities. The clarity, power and soulfulness of her voice have been compared to the likes of: Adele, Alison Krauss, Emmylou Harris and Norah Jones. Deirdre draws inspiration from a vast variety of artists and musical styles. She herself creates melodic, poetic stories that are drenched in descriptive language and raw, personal recollections. Deirdre received the 2012 Jersey Acoustic Music Award for Best Female Songwriter, and was also nominated for Top Female Vocalist that year. She was nominated for two JAM awards, (Top Female Vocalist and Top New Female Acoustic) in 2013. She was also nominated for Asbury Music Awards for Female Acoustic Act in 2012, 2013 & 2014. I just put out my debut album, Weathered Woes. Heres some links to great reviews of the album! Shy and soft-spoken by nature, Forrest has a bold voice that captivates and lulls in the same space, exuding glissando, power and tone in ranges unattainable to many and unseen by the rest who search for thesound...one of the most beautiful singing voices in the music scene bar none. Originally toned, melodically pristine and steeped in a proud tradition of Jersey talent on the rise, I’m happy to see Deirdre Forrest with a CD that shows the music world where this talented singer-songwriter comes from, and easily tells us the good places she’s inevitably on her way to...-John Pfeiffer, The Aquarian Weekly theaquarian/2014/06/25/shoreworld-deirdre-forrest-weathered-woes/ On Weathered Woes, her aptly named debut disc, Deirdre Forrest has taken the joy and heartbreak of love and created a captivating collection of folk rock gems. ...Over the years it has been a joy to watch her stage presence evolve into something that blends wisdom, confidence and sensuality.... enigmatic, fluid poetry... -Mike Farragher, The Irish Voice irishcentral/culture/entertainment/Deirdre-Forrests-Wonderful-Weathered-Woes.html Hope to talk to you soon! Thank you! 😊 Deirdre
