Biography

In 2019, Dublin teenager Saibh Skelly started to upload her busking sessions to YouTube, starting with her cover of Billie Eilish’s ‘When The Party’s Over’. However, it wasn’t until later that year that she noticed something interesting was happening. Her home recording videos were gaining popularity. “It was growing steadily,” Saibh adds “but when I got to 10,000 subscribers, I thought... that's actually a lot of people!”

Saibh’s popularity really started to take-off during lockdown as new fans - old, young and worldwide - warmed to her unassuming personality and her unfeigned enthusiasm for the modern pop songbook; covering everything from Anne-Marie to Lewis Capaldi. 10k subscribers quickly became 60k fans.

In the spring of 2022, Saibh's debut EP 'Undercover Heartbreak' charted Top 10 in the official Irish national album chart.

Her single 'Grow Up' (Saibh's first original song release) came out in the autumn of 2022.

Saibh kicked off 2023 with the thrilling, uplifting So What?, a positive-vibes-only bop. So What? was another airplay hit for Ms. Skelly, consolidating her position as one of Ireland’s rising stars for 2023.

After 16.5 million radio impacts, 3.5 million views on YouTube, 3.67 million views on TikTok and 2 million streams, Saibh released her new single ‘Superficial’ in March, before her first EP of self-written songs ‘SAIBH X FIVE’.
