Dana-Lynn Farrell
Overview
If you're looking for an easy going Celtic singer, you've come to the right place! Happy to be background music or the centre of attention, I typically sing with my guitar or ukulele. If you're looking for Celtic, pop, golden oldies, or classical music, I've got you covered!

July 22, 2019Just What We Wanted!
Dana-Lynn provided our party with wonderful music. We wanted some traditional East Coast songs to enjoy as we celebrated with our family and this was perfect. Dana-Lynn was accommodating, friendly and talented. We would certainly recommend her as an artist.

September 16, 2014Amazing voice
We had Dana-Lynn accompanied by an acoustic guitar sing at our our wedding in August 2014. She sang 2 songs - Green Eyes by Coldplay and Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol. I was so glad we got to hear her sing both songs at the rehersal, her voice is so strong and beautiful when she started singing it gave the entire wedding party goosebumps. There was quite a few teary eyes. And all kinds of positive feedback from the guests. We strongly recommend her as a singer. Thank you Dana-Lynn for making our day special!

What to expect
I've often been told that I have an amazing stage presence - I strive to get the audience excited and interested in the performance and the entire event, and do my best to perform the music with integrity and musicality. The audiences satisfaction and enjoyment is number one to me, so I've learned how to read a crown and figure out what they want to hear. I am also very good at flying by the seat of my pants when things go awry due to technical difficulties or other problems - I was an Irish dance teacher for many years, which involved a lot of that!
When hired as a singing telegram, I will show up on time, with a smile and a well learned piece of music. I love making people smile, so singing for your loved one would be my pleasure!
When hired as a wedding singer, I do everything in my power to make your special day just as special as I can. The pieces I will play are of your choosing, because who wants a generic song for something so special!?
When hired for stage performances I will always perform to the best of my ability. This is what I am trained to do, since I was 4 years old! I will sing Celtic music, pop music, classical music from all eras, indie music, and just about everything in between!
Anything I haven't listed here is probably still something I would be more than happy to do for you, just let me know what you have in mind and we can discuss it!
About
Hello!
I've been studying voice since I was just a kid, and Did two years of study at Dalhousie University. I love performing, I love teaching, and I love learning, so any gig you may have is probably exactly what I'm looking for! I've done recitals, choirs, quartets, weddings, singing telegrams, teaching, recording, and everything in between! My favourite genres to sing include early music (so everything before and including baroque), folk music, and indie pop. Of course I love all sorts of music as well, and am open to trying new things always! I also play guitar, ukulele, piano, and cello.
If you have anything that might fit what I've described, give me a shout! :)
Additional booking notes
I am usually an unplugged act, with me and a guitar, possibly a microphone for my voice and/or guitar. I do have a pick up on my guitar as an option. I can also sing to background tracks depending on the genre so would need a sound system for that. I don't need a lot of space either, just a little square to fit myself into.

Set list
Every gig I play is different because every person has their own needs. I have a list of songs in my pocket, but I prefer to do custom repertoire for each client.
