Sean Kiely is a folk musician, mostly acoustic but sometimes not, from Jersey City, NJ. His new album Long Live the Low, nine songs for the weeds, the un-asked-for gifts that keep on giving, and heartbreak as a portal to change, arrives October 16, 2026 on Multiple Logo Records. It was made with his band over two days at Restoration Sound in Brooklyn.
 

His previous record, Postcards of the Reckoning, was named one of the top 10 albums of 2024 by NJ.com and debuted at #15 on the FAI Folk Chart.
 

Kiely's lyrics "summon epiphanies and moments of clarity in the middle of storms" and his music chases beauty to unexpected yet inevitable conclusions. He has shared bills with Richard Thompson (a sold-out White Eagle Hall) and Iron & Wine (a sold-out WFUV show at City Winery), performed live in-studio at WFUV, and toured rooms from Nashville and Chicago to Athens, Asheville, and the Hudson Valley. His music has been recognized by the Jersey City Arts Council and NERFA. No Depression wrote that his debut album Your Logo, My Logo "is one of those sublime and unassuming efforts that sneaks up on you until you find it won't let go."
