Texas-bred songwriter Helene Cronin describes herself as a “story-singer.” She shares her life through songs that may or may not stick to the facts! However, they resonate with emotional truth and while deeply personal, are  widely universal. Helene invites her listeners to relate them to their own lives. For her, cultivating that connection is supremely important.

A New Folk Winner at the 2018 Kerrville Folk Festival, Helene joins the company of songwriters who share unique voices and an unguarded vulnerability. While often compared to more well-known female troubadours, in Americana Highways magazine, John Apice had this to say. "Her vivid lyrical abilities are without question. She’s like Leonard Cohen - (She) writes with a good editing pen and produces tight, original tales, then adds an invigorating melody."   

Helene travels frequently between Texas and Nashville writing for and with other artists. Later in 2024, Cody Johnson will release his recording of her song "Over Missing You" on the deluxe version of his album LEATHER. She has cuts with rising star Bryan Martin, most recently the title cut of his record POETS AND OLD SOULS. Her catalog includes songs recorded by Janelle Arthur, The Isaacs, Holly Tucker, The Young Fables, Bri Bagwell and other independent artists.

As an artist, Helene continues to write for and record her own projects. In February 2023, she released a full-length record, LANDMARKS which was the much anticipated follow-up to her critically acclaimed 2019 album OLD GHOSTS & LOST CAUSES. A Christmas project BEAUTIFUL DECEMBER was just released in November 2023.
