Acclaimed Canadian songwriter Dana Sipos’ cosmic folk songs are constellations - glowing in the vast landscape, mapping the liminal spaces between memory and myth.

Described as “slightly strange and completely mesmerising, ”Sipos’ talent for earthen imagery, rich spiralling vocals, and textured instrumentation sets the stage for a deeply moving performance. Exploring themes of impermanence and transformation, Sipos has penned another collection of captivatingly nuanced songs that holds the complexity of the human experience up to the light, due out in January 2026.

“gently fierce. Spellbinding, even. when one peels back the layers of her lyrics, it’s a journey through the poetry of being”         -vents magazine

“Sipos is a master of creating immersive atmospheres for her listeners to lose themselves in” -no depression

Dana Sipos coaxes silkworms out of their cocoons and spins them into song. She inhabited the far north before going nomad and her captivatingly nuanced songs are filled with a wild wind and a haunting surrealism. She now resides among the old growth of Vancouver Island, British Columbia.

A consummate performer, Sipos has brought her unique brand of cosmic folk to living rooms, concert halls and festivals stages across North America, Europe, Australia and New Zealand.

Sipos once again teamed with contemporary producer and her Ontario-based band to bring her new batch of songs to life. Exploring themes of impermanence and transformation the new album, set to be released in early 2026, is another collection of captivatingly nuanced songs that holds the complexity of the human experience up to the light.
