Sneaky Miles is an indie folk band formed in the fall of 2019. Originally a trio—Kevin O’Brien, Patrick Fitzgibbons, and Jake Gagne—the band found each other through open mic nights at the University of New Hampshire. Since forming, Sneaky Miles has quickly become a local powerhouse in the New Hampshire Seacoast music scene.

While the band began as a stripped-down trio, Sneaky Miles has since expanded their live sound by teaming up with additional members on drums, bass, and pedal steel. The result is a high-energy performance and a sound that feels bigger than the sum of its parts, blending heartfelt storytelling with driving folk-rock arrangements.

Their latest album, Cowboys, Songbirds, and Other Tales of Sorrow (2024), showcases the band’s growth both sonically and lyrically, cementing their place in the modern indie folk landscape.

Sneaky Miles has shared the stage with The Backseat Lovers, Trampled By Turtles, Coyote Island, Dr. Dog, Will Evans, Wheatus, Rayland Baxter, Wild Rivers, and The Deslondes. Notable performances include Borderland Festival (2025), Leavitt Festival (2025), and they’ve played the BNHP “Little Hazy” B Stage before CaAmp and The Lumineers (2022).

For fans of Caamp, Noah Kahan, The Lumineers, Mumford & Sons, and The Head and the Heart, Sneaky Miles delivers a sound rooted in community, connection, and cathartic live shows.
