BIO.....

Siân Brown is a singer-songwriter, performer, and multidisciplinary artist whose work bridges music, movement, therapy, and spiritual inquiry. Based in Cork, Ireland, her practice spans songwriting, dance, sound healing, and performance art, creating music rooted in embodiment, consciousness, and emotional truth.

With four solo albums released, Siân’s songwriting has been central to her life from an early age, evolving into a body of work shaped by lived experience, neurodivergence, and a deep engagement with music as a tool for healing and transformation. Her work balances vulnerability with clarity, weaving personal narrative with wider themes of meaning, connection, and inner change.

Alongside her career as an artist, Siân is a qualified senior music therapist and supervisor, holding an MA in Music Therapy, and a PGDip in Consciousness, Spirituality & Transpersonal Psychology and has worked extensively in therapeutic and community settings. This dual practice—artistic and clinical—strongly informs her creative output, resulting in music that is both emotionally resonant and intentionally crafted to support reflection, integration, and self-awareness.

Her most recent completed solo project, Follow Your Heart, is an 11-track album inspired by Anne Baring’s seminal book The Dream of the Cosmos: A Quest for the Soul. Created with Anne Baring’s full blessing and support—and named by Baring herself—the album offers a musical reflection on the book’s exploration of soul, cosmology, feminine wisdom, and the evolution of human consciousness. The project stands as a cohesive artistic document that bridges scholarship, spirituality, and song.

Throughout the creation of Follow Your Heart, Siân documented the songwriting process section by section on her YouTube channel, offering a transparent, process-led insight into the integration of text, intuition, and music. This archive forms both a creative record and a form of public reflection on conscious artistic practice.

In parallel with her solo work, Siân performs as Moonbird, the front woman and lyricist for Lambdancer, an electro-punk duo formed with her husband and producer Darqhorse (Jimmy Wormall). Lambdancer’s debut album d.u.m.b. (2017) led to performances at major Irish festivals including Electric Picnic, Body & Soul, and Vegfest Cork & Dublin.

Lambdancer are currently working on their second album, a project that moves decisively toward consciousness-raising themes, ecofeminism, peace, and love, while retaining the project’s raw electronic intensity and embodied performance style. The new material expands Lambdancer’s political and spiritual voice, positioning the duo as both agitators and healers within contemporary electronic music.

Across all aspects of her practice, Siân Brown’s work is rooted in resilience, curiosity, and a commitment to music as a catalyst for personal and collective transformation. Whether in therapeutic contexts, studio environments, or on stage, her work invites deeper listening, movement, and connection—to self, to others, and to the wider world.
