Emerging as a captivating force in the alt-pop scene, Genevieve Stokes is an artist whose unique sound and introspective lyrics resonate deeply with listeners. Born and raised in the picturesque landscapes of Portland, Maine, Stokes first discovered her love for music at the tender age of eight when she taught herself to play the piano. Drawing inspiration from iconic female musicians like Fiona Apple and Regina Spektor, she began crafting her own style, infusing her compositions with personal narratives that explore the complexities of life and the human experience.

With the release of her debut album, “With a Lightning Strike,” out October 2024, Stokes stands on the brink of a major milestone in her career. The album arrives after the success of her earlier EPs, Swimming Lessons and Catching Rabbits, both of which showcased her ability to blend lush melodies with poignant lyrics.
