About the Artist

Madeline Kenney crafts a sound that blends introspective indie rock with a dreamy, intimate atmosphere. Her performances are known for their emotive clarity and subtle yet intricate arrangements that weave her voice and guitar lines into textured soundscapes. Growing up in Portland, Kenney developed a knack for balancing raw emotional honesty with experimental production choices, which has become a signature in her live shows. Fans often cite the emotional resonance of songs like "Sucker" and "Cut Me Off" as moments when the music feels both personal and expansive, reflecting a maturation from her early, more straightforward songwriting to a layered, almost cinematic aural experience. Kenney's style tempts listeners into a space of reflection, where vulnerability and melodic exploration coexist without excess indulgence or overproduction.
