Meredith Moon

Meredith Moon is a Canadian singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist who began playing several instruments and writing songs at a young age, inspired by growing up in a musical family—her father being legendary singer-songwriter Gordon Lightfoot. More specifically, Meredith Moon started writing songs at the age of eight and became a self-taught guitar player by the age of 14. She taught herself to play banjo when she was 21 by watching YouTube videos.

In her teenage years, she found her sound as a busker on sidewalks from Halifax to Vancouver and began travelling her home of Canada and the world by means of road and rail, finding inspiration for her unique style of songs which are often based on her travels and crafted in a true storyteller's fashion. For the past decade, Meredith Moon introduced herself simply as "a multi-instrumentalist and songwriter," wowing audiences around the world with her clawhammer banjo and original songs. She didn't mention that her father is Gordon Lightfoot; she first wanted to prove herself on her own terms.

Moon presents a powerful voice and highly contemporary clawhammer banjo style which has gained acclaim within the international old-time music community. Moon incorporates finger-style guitar, piano, and lap dulcimer, among other instruments, into her performance. Her first full-length album "Forest Far Away" was released independently in May of 2018, and she released "Constellations" on True North Records/Linus Entertainment in March of 2023. Her second release garnered international acclaim, was nominated for a Canadian Folk Music Award, and was featured on the Folk Alliance International Top 10 Album Chart two months running in April and May 2023. Moon has announced her third studio album "From Here To The Sea," released on September 12 via New Motor Records/Compass Records, produced by Colin Linden.
