“I’m not here to be liked,” laughs Sabrina Kennedy, “at least, not by everyone.”  While Sabrina’s music has mass appeal written all over it, she also knows that you don’t get to be a woman who knows her own mind without upsetting a few people. 

​

The big sound and showstopping vocals on her debut EP 'Wheel of the Year' saw it playlisted by Kerrang! alongside Royal Blood and Metallica, and by Stereogum next to Arlo Parks, indicating Sabrina's wide appeal. Kerrang! called her an 'alt.pop witch'. Wonderland called the EP  'a powerful display of unapologetic individuality, with a voice as strong as her message'.

Adopted at birth, Kennedy was raised near Salem, Massachusetts, infamous for witch trials in the 1690s. She relocated to England's North East coast after shooting her witch-burning ‘Puritan’ video: “I learned they burnt women 40 years before Salem!  ‘Puritan’ is for my ancestors. We’ve been burnt at the stake for centuries.”  

​

The 'Red Wine' video was shot in a historic English church: “I summoned the divine feminine energy that is Mary Magdalene, the misunderstood whore. Red Wine is the direct relationship between Mary Magdalene and Jesus – two lost souls just trying to get by.” Kerrang! said: "Sabrina’s killer new video matches the lyrical themes perfectly."

​

Another EP track 'Magic & Mayhem' reached the ears of Killing Joke bassist and Grammy-winning producer Youth, who played the track on radio in London, UK.  The two met and discovered a shared love ot the supernatural. The meeting led to them co-writing a new song 'Witch of the West', coming soon. As one writer has already said: "It’s a dynamite rollercoaster, with a chorus that sticks like gum. It’s a serious statement of intent, so take note, this witch is flying your way."
