Acoustic live version of Take Me Home
performed with The Breeze at the Saint Anne Blues Café
I love to sing songs that tell stories — and to write those kinds of songs too. I'm currently working on my debut album, which will include original songs in English and French as well as my version of a very well-known song that I almost always sing when I perform.
The album’s lead single, Take Me Home, has been featured on CBC Radio One, Canoe FM, CRFC Folk Everything, CKCU, and community radio stations. Take Me Home was written during the pandemic as part of an online edition of the Hillside Festival’s Girls & Guitars Songwriting program, and I later had the opportunity to perform it on the festival stage.
"Imbued with wistfulness and longing, Briana Doyle’s “Take Me Home” recalls the folk-pop of Judy Collins and Sandy Denny in its purity of tone and depth of feeling. I can't resist music that is imbued with optimism, but also has a drop of melancholy, too. This one suggests a short story that lives in between its lines, and what a voice to deliver it." - Rob Jones (The Delete Bin)
"What a solid result. It’s also an earworm… I just listened again and it sticks … and soars." - Kat Taylor (91.7 Erin Radio)
In addition to my solo project, I perform often in the Greater Montreal area with the folk-rock quartet The Breeze and as one-half of the acoustic duo Pagoda Starling.
Original songs and favourite covers are both fun to sing and share with others. Here are a few clips of some of the songs I've been working on.
