Morgan Myles Profile • Hookist

Morgan Myles

Morgan Myles makes a triumphant return to Hookist following WEEKLY tour de force performances on The Voice, where she was judges and critics darling and a fan fave, coming in Top 3!

Morgan has earned critical acclaim from every outlet out there from American Songwriter to Billboard, Rolling Stone, and CMT for the way she seamlessly blends her own brand of soul, pop and rock. Growing up, she listened to Janis Joplin, Bonnie Raitt and Susan Tedeschi, while admiring the likes of Eva Cassidy and Carole King because of their songwriting. “I was influenced by any woman that had a big voice because I wanted to be just like them. You name it – any diva – I was trying to imitate,” she says with boundless energy and enthusiasm.

Myles’ songs display themes of strength, perseverance and empowerment. Shaped greatly from her years as a nanny-turned-guardian to the children of a woman named Amy, who passed away from ALS, Myles writes from a deeper life perspective. More recently, Myles lost her 33 year old close cousin to brain cancer and now serves as Celebrity Ambassador for the Glioblastoma Foundation in his honor.

Morgan also supports The Recording Academy's MusiCares and, in partnership with Hookist, is donating a portion of the proceeds from this collaboration to help provide health and wellness services to the "humans behind the music because music gives so much to the world"!

“Music is my Therapy...my place of healing and happiness. I want to connect with my listeners on a deeper level so they know they are not alone. Music is our one intimate universal language.”
