About
Acclaimed Canadian songwriter Dana Sipos’ cosmic folk songs are constellations - glowing in the vast landscape, mapping the liminal spaces between memory and myth.
Her songs don’t just tell stories—they roll out over familiar landscapes, shimmering and shifting into something yet undiscovered. Known for crafting music that is both fragile and orchestral, acclaimed Canadian songwriter Dana Sipos invites the listener beneath the surface through a nuanced lens that isn't afraid to be out of focus at times. 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’ 9 song album is another collection of captivatingly nuanced songs that holds the complexity of the human experience up to the light. Golden Molten will be released 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.
Exploring themes of impermanence and transformation, Sipos’ 9 song album, Golden Molten, 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. This collection follows up on the acclaim of her last 2 albums, both nominated for Canadian folk music awards and celebrated by contemporary musical luminaries such as Laurie Brown. Sipos is moving gently with this release, letting the new album unfurl in its own rhythm. It will be worth the wait. in the meantime, She is bringing the new songs to spring and summer stages across the UK, Nova Scotia and British Columbia.
Dana has facilitated songwriting workshops in remote communities in northern Canada and is a participating artist with Carnegie Hall’s The Lullaby Project. She is currently working as a songwriter and artist facilitator with the Memory Connections, an initiative supporting adults with dementia.
