Ken Pomeroy will break your heart. She’ll do it with a single line–sometimes, just one word. The pain begins as an empathetic ache. Then, as Pomeroy sings her stories, you begin to see yourself in her hurt and hope. And you realize: We’re in this together.
Pomeroy’s outstretched hand to the wounded manifests as startlingly good songs. Her soprano is comforting––almost sweet––but perhaps most powerful delivering a devastating line. A deft guitarist, she opts for beds of rootsy strings that can soothe or haunt. But it’s her writing that really shines and stings.
Writing as a cathartic release has culminated in Pomeroy’s highly anticipated new album, Cruel Joke. The 12-track contemporary folk collection creates a wild but safe space of Pomeroy’s own––a space that, like 22-year-old Pomeroy herself, is brutally honest, proudly Native American, and undeniably brilliant.

838 days ago Dakota and I began recording ‘Cicadas’. That marked the beginning of our long journey. So much has happened since we started. The oldest song was written when I was 13 years old. The most recent one was written and added to the record this past December, just before we finished recording. For almost two years, we dedicated almost every waking moment to working on Cruel Joke. Today it is in the world for everyone to listen to. The one thing I wanted to accomplish with this record is to make at least 1 person not feel alone in whatever they might be dealing with in their life. Thank you so much to everyone who made this happen. Thank you dearly to everyone who listens. I hope you guys like it❤️

Dakota and I began recording “Cicadas” back in February of 2023. That marked the beginning of our long multi-year journey and so much has happened since we started. The oldest song was written when I was 13 years old. The most recent one was written and added to the record only a few months ago, just before we finished recording. For almost two years, we dedicated every waking moment to working on “Cruel Joke.” Now, it’s time to share the first single, “Stranger.”
I’m also excited to announce my first set of headline shows in Nashville, Brooklyn and Tulsa.
