Details
Cynthia grew up in the New York City music scene. Romanced by California and all things West Coast, she moved to Los Angeles on the heels of the Northridge earthquake. Inspired by DIY artists like Ani DiFranco, she immersed herself in the indie world forming Saucy Monky with Dublin-born Annmarie Cullen. Her self-made indie label olivoiL records hosted events that brought the LA music scene together. From 1999 – to the late 2000s, Songwriters on Tap and Indie Nights music series’ launched the careers of artists like Gaby Mareno and hosted stars like Sara Bareilles, Colin Hay, Garrison Starr, and Jimmy Gnecco. Saucy Monky went on to perform for festival audiences across Europe, opening for Wilco, The B52’s, Pink, The Cure, Black Eyed Peas, Metric, Marianne Faithful, and more. Cynthia is currently scoring films, producing tracks, and writing for new projects and solo releases. The latest collaborators include Rich Devletian (pictured), Beth Thornley, Jason Thomas Gordon, Sylvie Lewis, Naimee Coleman, Annmarie Cullen, and Michael James.
