Steph Barrak is an independent singer/songwriter based out of Boston, MA. Her songs are melodically and lyrically driven, often incorporating elements of folk, country, and pop. Recently, Steph teamed up with local record producer, Mike Davidson, and spent the last two years recording her debut album, "Words To Break Your Heart." While Steph’s live performances are often acoustic, the album was recorded with a full band. It features appearances from musical heavyweights Duke Levine (of Peter Wolf and Aimee Mann), Jamie Edwards (of Aimee Mann and Ben Gibbard), and Steve Scully (of Francine and Melissa Ferrick). Steph credits producer Mike Davidson with always seeing the big picture, and bringing out the best version of each of her songs. ”The process was a collaboration,” she explains. “It’s our baby.” Listeners of Steph’s music primarily comment on her vocal style and lyrics. Steph’s voice has often been compared to that of Suzanne Vega’s, and her lyrics are often described as heartfelt, simple, and memorable. Steph hopes to continue her recording and songwriting career long after the release of her first record. “I’ve got a lot of songs left in me. Words to Break Your Heart is only the beginning.”
