Performance by Caitlin Mahoney
Caitlin Mahoney is a Brooklyn-based singer/songwriter whose voice has been praised as powerful & soulful - a mix of Adele & Fiona Apple. Inspired by recent adventures of trying on new cities over the last few years, living in LA & then spending a year in Jacksonville Beach, Florida, Caitlin released her 3rd full-length album Name What I Need - a mature, hopeful reflection on boundaries, burnout & self-love drenched in synth pop sounds & featuring the warm, dynamic vocals she has become known for across the US & Europe. Her music has been featured on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, TV shows like Freeform's The Fosters & Good Trouble, as well as in Starbucks stores throughout the United States. Since 2013, Caitlin has played hundreds of shows across the United States, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Spain & Italy. Caitlin recently moved back in March 2025 to NYC & is happy to be back home working on new songs.
