About sneaky miles

Sneaky Miles is a five-piece indie-folk band from Newmarket, New Hampshire, blending heartfelt storytelling with the energy of a full-throttle folk-rock show. Think Zach Bryan meets The Lumineers—honest, cathartic songs built for packed rooms and loud singalongs.

The band began in 2019 when Kevin O’Brien, Patrick Fitzgibbons, and Jake Gagne met through open mic nights at the University of New Hampshire. What started as a stripped-down trio has since grown into a dynamic five-piece, adding drums, bass, and pedal steel to create a sound that feels both intimate and larger than life.

Over the past year, Sneaky Miles has sold out club headliners throughout New Hampshire and Boston while expanding its reach across the Northeast. The band toured with The 502s and has also opened for Elle King, Bombargo, Magoo, The Mallett Brothers, and Leah Blevins. Additional shared bills include The Backseat Lovers, Trampled by Turtles, Wild Rivers, Dr. Dog, Wheatus, Rayland Baxter, Will Evans, Coyote Island, and The Deslondes.

Notable appearances include Borderland Festival, Leavitt Festival, the Bank of New Hampshire Pavilion’s Little Hazy Stage ahead of Caamp and The Lumineers, and the L.L.Bean Summer Concert Series, along with performances in Boston, New York City, Philadelphia, Richmond, Atlanta, and beyond.

In September 2026, Sneaky Miles released their latest album, Dyin’ and a Dream, marking their first full-length release since 2024’s Cowboys, Songbirds, and Other Tales of Sorrow. With a growing audience and a relentless live schedule, Sneaky Miles continues to build its name one song, one city, and one packed room at a time.
