Sophie delivers stories carved in her own lore, conjured by her own unique lyrical dynamism. She fuses the laid-back west coast vibe of her native Galway with the sharply observational lyrical style of her current home in Dundalk, where she lives with her musician-husband Jinx Lennon and their children.

“Whether she’s conjuring up magic or brewing up something darker, Coyle’s voice and narrative takes charge on the assertive Blame Me for the Storm.”
