LINOY is a Portland-based, multi-lingual singer-songwriter.
People say her voice sounds dreamy... like a viola, or a new soundtrack for The Princess Bride. Sometimes she gets compared to Joan Baez or Yael Naim. She doesn't know about all that... she's been too busy working part-time jobs while writing and recording her original music since 2013. Her first single release "מירוץ" (The Marathon) in 2022 and her debut album "מחברת" (The Notebook) in 2023.
Then, in 2026, Linoy released her breakout EP AVODA ZARAH, with an explosive full-band performance that's been described as the "the musical baby of Chappell Roan and Norah Jones." People are too kind.
Her work is driven by the healing powers of music (she's a board-certified music therapist, so she would know) and a devotion to songwriting as a way of life. Her lyrics are bittersweet, exploring love, loss, and identity at the end of the world (in a vulnerable, catchy/dancy kind of way).
Whether you LISTEN TO HER MUSIC ONLINE, BUY A VINYL/CD, or see her live (solo or with her multi-talented Super Band), LINOY will always make you feel seen, heard, and beautiful.
Because you are.
