Hi, I'm Aoife O'Leary, the founder of PoppyMoth Productions .
(Aoife sounds very like "EE'fa". People always ask me about how my name is pronounced!)
Here's the quick version of my story and how PoppyMoth came to be!
I began my music career as a live and studio session singer and songwriter in my home town of Dublin, Ireland.
I loved session work, but was restless to do my own music, so I created my electronic rock band, Moth Complex, and over the next few years, co-wrote, recorded and released two albums for Moth Complex and toured across the States and in Europe.
(So much fun!)
Around the same time, I was doing occasional work as a singer and songwriter, including as a session vocalist in LA and writing pop songs for Warner Music in Europe for some of their artists.
As Moth Complex wound down, I relocated back to Dublin. I set up my own studio and dove into the world of music production, dedicating myself to mastering the craft.
Soon after, I began getting hired for various projects, including songs for movies, creating custom songs for clients, doing vocal and music production work, and ultimately transitioning into scoring music for movies.
It didn't take long to identify a distinct need in my clients - musicians, artists, music supervisors, film producers and other music professionals - for a one stop, professional, dependable music production company.
Music is very dear to me and I take it very seriously. I hold very high standards about who I work for and work with.
Over the years, I have built musical relationships, worked and collaborated with people who are highly creative individuals, deeply passionate about the music they do, clear in their communication, kind and enjoyable to work with, and always reliable - consummate professionals. People able to work fast, work to spec, and with the versatility to work in multiple genres.
So I knew exactly who to turn to when I decided to create PoppyMoth Productions!
I hand-selected the PoppyMoth team. These are the people I work with on my own productions, sync and scoring.
In the past couple of years, the PoppyMoth team has created the score for 3 full length movies, and we have shared on our own artist releases. Every one of us has a bone deep love of and complete passion for music. Music is a deeply fundamental part of our lives.
We understand how important your creative project is to you. We know that you take music seriously and have high standards for your music too - and we are here to support you.
Please reach out to us with any questions you have about PoppyMoth and about how we can help you bring your project from where it is to where you want it to be.
We look forward to hearing from you and to working with you on your music.
