Peia Luzzi is a singer, songwriter and keeper of traditional songs who weaves music, animism and cultural memory into spaces of belonging.

Based in the mountains of Appalachia, she draws from a deep well of Irish and Old World European folk traditions. Her work moves between the ancient and the original, carrying old songs forward, while creating new music rooted in place, memory, and connection to the natural world. Her unmistakable voice has carried her from Child Ballads and 17th-century Irish laments to Scottish waulking songs and Bulgarian mountain calls, traditions she has traveled extensively to study and embody over more than a decade. Yet Peia’s work has never been solely about looking backward. Her work is an exploration of what these old songs can awaken in the present, and how music can give form to our relationship with ancestry, nature, belonging, and one another.

With three studio albums and more than a decade of international touring, Peia has cultivated a dedicated global following. Her newest body of work, Fathoms Deep, marks a turning inward - from songs that speak to the collective condition toward a more intimate landscape of original songwriting, exploring loss, the cathartic process of alchemizing pain into beauty, our relationship with mortality, and ultimately, the redemptive force of love.
