Heather McCready / Tom McDermott February 22, 2013

Heather McCready
With touches of bluegrass, Celtic, classical, and folk, Heather McCready has an original and remarkable sound that is all her own. With music described as evocative, whimsical and mesmerizing, Heather and her band use a blend of acoustic instruments as well as Heather’s own angelic and distinctly pure voice. She has released five full-length albums: Finally Free, Neverland, Give It A Day, Christmas The Way I Hear It and Bluebirdy. Heather’s own inspiration for her music stems from her personal platform for mental health awareness. After losing two of her closest family members to suicide and struggling with bipolar disorder herself, Heather aspires to help other mental health sufferers and to fight against existing antiquated stigmas associated with mental health disorders.
