Mindy Murray
Mindy Murray is a singer-songwriter who draws from her life experiences and oral histories to create edgy, rootsy songs—born out of a desire to have her music mean something, while telling the stories of hard-working women and men. Many reflect life in Bucks County in the 1930s and 40s and tales from the West Virginia mountains and coal fields where she worked at clinics while in medical school. Her latest song, “Striking at Kings,” about the 1938 strike at King Farm in Morrisville, PA was just awarded first place by the International Songwriters Organization 2026 and second place by the International Women’s Freedom Song 2026. Her songs have also received rave reviews from major music journals including fRoots Magazine, No Depression, and Irish Music Magazine. Last month Murray sang her songs and told her stories to audiences at Carnegie Hall (WV), Musikfest, and the New Jersey Folk Festival. She has also appeared at the legendary Philadelphia Folk Festival, the Northern Appalachian Folk Festival, The Cup of Tae in Ireland, and many venues. A new solo album is in the works!
