Margot MacDonald Tour Dates and Upcoming Concerts

Featured on NPR's Tiny Desk Concerts, Voice of America and TEDx; songwriter, vocalist and live looper, Margot MacDonald embodies a one-woman band. A long time guitarist and pianist, Margot’s instrumentation has expanded to include unconventional vocal accompaniments created and looped live on the spot through the use of a loop pedal. Haunting, powerful and indie-pop driven, Margot’s performances make you forget the technology she hones, as you lose yourself in layers of lush vocals and striking melodies. Margot is Washington City Paper's "Best Singer" of 2014, a three-time winner of the Washington Area Music Association 'Artist of the Year' award, a recipient of DC’s Power 30 Under 30 award, and an Artist-in-Residence alumna at Iceland's Saga Fest and the Music Center at Strathmore. :: New Album :: Bandcamp http://bit.ly/1bjMwRv Spotify http://spoti.fi/19jTxlv iTunes http://bit.ly/1aDqJUS :: Social Media :: www.twitter.com/margotmacdonald www.instagram.com/margotmacdonald www.facebook.com/margotmacdonaldmusic :: Press :: "Our Favorite Discoveries From The 2013 CMJ Music Festival" ● NPR All Songs Considered "A very inventive, ingenious, ambitious young lady … certainly refreshing and a pleasure to have on the show." ● Voice of America “Listen to her music, and you might get an idea why such a young woman is finding success as a full-time musician. It's her voice: a little Paula Cole, a little Dolores O'Riordan of the Cranberries...” ● The Washington Post “Her original songwriting is moving rapidly in a direction that is unmistakably her own and that really highlights her unstoppably strong voice … a voice so refined, so bold, so versatile, and so fresh … Margot is definitely an artist to watch.” ● The Deli Magazine "Watching singer and musician Margot MacDonald perform is like witnessing a summer storm rise ... it’s as riveting to watch as it is to hear." ● DC Modern Luxury Magazine "... the vocals on offer here are technically flawless – her rich harmonies becoming a recurring motif that weave Canvas together into a cohesive showcase." ● Songwriting Magazine UK “In a nutshell, she embodies what Simon Cowell will be spending months searching for — the elusive 'X Factor.'" ● The Vinyl District "MacDonald created rich, haunting arrangements in a process that was mesmerizing to witness ... Cute, charming, multi-instrumental and boasting a voice that draws instant comparisons to Sarah McLachlan, MacDonald shames us all." ● Performer Magazine "When Margot performs, everyone listens ... She has that extra unexplainable star quality and soulfulness that emanates from some place really deep and that allows her to connect wholly and intimately with an audience." ● Philippa Hughes, The Pink Line Project More at www.margotmacdonald.com Looptastic album 'Canvas' is here! www.margotmacdonald.com Bandcamp http://bit.ly/1bjMwRv Spotify http://spoti.fi/19jTxlv iTunes www.goo.gl/jlovfu
