Iron Cowgirl Missy

Missy Covill ~ Iron Cowgirl Artist, Singer, Songwriter Listening to just a few minutes of a Missy Covill song reveals that the Iron Cowgirl is a determined and serious rock artist with a distinctive ability to tell stories through her music. Covill’s powerful, gritty and edgy vocals naturally match her inspiring lyrics and tunes, as her truth comes from her life experience and uncovers her personal emotion that otherwise would only be found deep within. Her first album “Heart of Steel” was released in 2010, second album, "Chasing My Dreams" released in 2012 and in 2017, "Switching Gears was released. After two years, Missy Covill is bringing a Southern Rock feel, and some sass, with her new album, "Where Do I Run". "There is a story to be told, and this album with do just that!" The Michigan native, and only child of a single mom, Missy Covill developed her intense drive and determination early on. As a young girl she wrote lyrics and made cassette player recordings of her singing. The first instrument Missy learned to play was a wash tub bass, made with a washtub, broom stick, and cotton string. "You could hear it all throughout horse camp". She grew up riding mini bikes and camping with her horses and spent many nights around a campfire playing bluegrass and old country music with other musicians who played everything from spoons to a washboard. Now in the early part of her midlife, after being a mig-welder for 20 years, she is absolutely chasing her dreams: writing, performing, meeting so many amazing people, and recording music that mirrors her life. Missy Covill is honored and humbled to have accepted awards from the United States Military, St. Jude Childrens hospital, MDA, WFLAG and many other charities, for outstanding work and donating proceeds from shows, as well as her time and efforts to make a difference. An avid motorcycle enthusiast, AMA, Motor Maid, Sturgis Motorcycle Museum & Hall of Fame, and HOG member, she has logged over 150,000 miles on two wheels and shares her stories of survival through her music and encouraging others to always chase their dreams and never give up. Music and motorcycles are a couple things that make Missy Covill feel at home while performing. After overcoming cancer, and matters of the heart, she packed up everything she could fit onto her Harley-Davidson (Mr. Bones) along with her guitar, and hit the road with only $250 in cash and a tent. Her 15,000 mile, ten-week journey chronicled in her song “Open Road,” took her around the coast of Michigan, down to the Gulf of Mexico, back up through the Smoky Mountains, and ultimately to Sturgis, South Dakota which hosts the largest annual motorcycle event in the world. In 2010, Iron Cowgirl band came together and today performs her signature mix of country, rock, and blues internationally. The dedicated band members compliment the raw emotion of her lyrics. The band has been a Showcase Artist for the world's largest music and motorcycling event, and has become a staple at the Sturgis Buffalo Chip. The band has been featured on the cover of magazines, many radio stations and shared the stage with many national acts including The Doobie Brothers, The Charlie Brechtel Band and The Fryed Brothers Band. The band has also opened for David Allen Coe, Confederate Railroad, Tesla, WAR, Madison Rising, and Saliva. This little lady is making an impression on the music industry and chasing her dreams with a fury! Missy Covill is a hard working woman, and dedicated to every performance.
