Biography:

Cap-Pele New Brunswick's Melanie Morgan has been described as one of the most exciting new voices to hit the Canadian Country scene. Growing up in a small Acadian town, Melanie was exposed to both "Country" and "French Acadian" Music which makes her a good example of home grown talent. With her classic twang and powerful vocals Melanie has left a lasting impression on audiences all over Canada.

Melanie's journey all began in 2006 when her dream of becoming a country recording artist flourished, heading down to Nashville Tennessee to record her debut album "Brand New Day". This debut album received national recognition at the East Coast Music Awards for "Country Recording of the Year" and at the Canadian Radio Music Award for her hit single "My Man" which also received national Airplay on CMT and on Canadian Radio Coast to Coast.

In the fall of 2008, Melanie recorded her second album. This new album showcases her songwriting abilities on songs co-written with Nashville hit makers such as George Teren, Wade Kirby, Rick Huckaby and Monty Criswell. Her new project was also co-produced by Criswell, and features several outside songs including "This Time of Year" written by Hillary Lindsey, Tim Mensy and Troy Verges.

In 2009 Melanie released "Goodbye Birmingham" receiving once again national recognition for "Country Recording of the Year" at the East Coast Music Awards. Melanie plans on touring and showcasing this amazing album which is by far her best work yet. Expect great things from Melanie Morgan as she prepares not only to move to the next level in Canada, but as she sets her sights on Nashville success as well.

Press:

"A fine singer with the classic twang of female country stars, " Almost every song could be a radio single, and the sound is as polished as anything else on the country charts. It's easy to understand why this was nominated.

" Melanie Morgan from Cap-Pele, NB is one of the more exciting new voices to hit the Cancountry scene in recent time. This debut album is filled with an aboundance of potential hit songs, all of which are delivered with an unbridled vocal passion. Melanie Morgan has found that rare bit of magic where a traditional country sounding voice takes some not so traditional sounding country songs and makes them sound as country as Loretta. Some of today's country 'divas' could take a lesson from Melanie Morgan!! Make special note of Melanie Morgan... this is a voice you should be hearing a lot more from in the very near future.
