Sinéad Willox Album Launch: Seoda Uladh

About the Artist

Armagh-born folk singer Sinéad Willox is celebrated for her distinctive voice, unique style, and ability to weave story and song with natural affinity. A winner of multiple All-Ireland Oireachtas titles in duet and trio performance, Sinéad has been singing since childhood and brings both depth and versatility to her craft.

Alongside her music, she has a strong theatrical background, performing with The Bardic
Theatre Donaghmore, The Phoenix Players Portadown, The Clonmore Players, and The
River Tall Theatre Company. Since 2016, she has performed as Countess Markievicz in the touring production of Blood Upon the Rose, bringing the role to life in major venues
including The Hammersmith Apollo London, The Waterfront Hall Belfast, The Olympia
Dublin, and The SEC Armadillo Glasgow.

In 2019, Sinéad began performing as a solo artist. Her debut live performance (as support for John Spillane) was hailed by Tumble and Folk magazine as “a sublime act: often singing in her own accent, weaving story and song with natural affinity”. In 2024, she featured on the BBC Northern Ireland documentary Talkin’ Tay with her rendition of Auld Lang Syne.

She is also a founding member of Copper Rose, a progressive five-piece folk band formed in 2023. Known for their melodic arrangements and seamless blend of traditional and contemporary folk, Copper Rose have shared stages with Cherish the Ladies, Gino Lupari, Bow Brothers, The Whistlin’ Donkeys, Fergal Scahill, Ryan Molloy, More Power to Your Elbow, Phil Coulter, and Malachi Cush. Their debut single ‘Feet of a Dancer’ was released in January 2024.

Most recently, Sinéad has recorded her debut solo album ‘Seoda Uladh’ (Jewels of Ulster), co-produced by Seán Óg Graham (Beoga) and released on 11th November 2025. To mark the release, Sinéad will tour all nine counties of Ulster from February 2026 onwards.
