Actor/Musician Savannah Welch is known for her acting roles in the HBO Max series TITANS, ABC's THE GOOD DOCTOR, Hulu's THE HANDMAID'S TALE, Oscar nominated film BOYHOOD directed by Richard Linklater; TREE OF LIFE starring Brad Pitt and Jessica Chastain; and a recurring guest starring role as ex-Marine Dawn on the History Channel’s SIX…among a colorful portfolio of independent films, in which Welch often deep dives into characters informed by varying degrees of music.

​

Growing up in Nashville, she was submerged in the southern culture of the country music industry, raised by her beautiful Okie folks who miraculously evolved into progressive hippies of the 80’s variety. The landscape was a terrain of spiritual sculpture and creative inspiration with permission to follow it; yet, the level of talent and validity existing within this environment scripted intimidation that set a bar too high to start. Most influential were the musicians and songwriters including her acclaimed father, Kevin Welch, and prodigious older brother Dustin. Savannah decided that’s what “they” did, and pursued a career in film production and acting…all the while, playing and writing songs when no one was looking. She co-wrote many songs that have been cut on other artists’ records, including the title track on the Bruce Robison and Kelly Willis’ Americana Music Awards album of the year nominated, Cheater’s Game, I Had To Give That Up Too recorded by Sammy Kershaw, and is the recipient of several SESAC Awards.

Eventually, performing caught up to her and she became one of the founding members of the Texas/Tennessee collaborative girl group, The Trishas.

Savannah has always been passionate about parenting, long before she had her son. She trained to become a birth doula, and an accredited Attached At The Heart Parent educator in 2014.
