Myjyn

Myjyn, is a modernised version of the Irish word ‘Maighdean’ for mermaid- since exploring her sonic depths is like swimming in the ocean- at once natural and mysterious. Classically trained, she flows with a poise which is rare to witness. This does not make the sound predictable, on the contrary: it allows the listener to feel safe while she transports us across her unique watery realms: looping, stretching and
keening. Inspired by such diverse singers as Moya Brennan, Ella Fitzgerald and Joni Mitchell, her sound is at once traditional and contemporary. She has released three singles since 2024 and played two sold out headline shows at The Cobblestone in Dublin. In 2025 she performed at Dúchas festival in Belfast and the An Pubaill Gaeilge stage at Electric Picnic. Most recently, she performed to a live studio audience in Cyprus Avenue alongside rapper Blue Niall for the filming of an episode of the Tyrone Productions and TG4 'Buille' which will be aired in Autumn 2026.

“Myjyn’s sound is like the glint off a fish’s back at night, the tickle of sea-spray on your cheeks, the call of a wave which transports you to the Otherworld.“
