Pan Morigan, dual citizen of Canada and the U.S., is an award-winning vocalist, songwriter/composer, multi-instrumentalist, and producer. She is known for her silvery, wide-ranging voice and passionate stage presence. Her genre-bending songs are influenced by the wide, stormy skies and wild lakes of the mid-west, where she was raised.
