American Singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Grayson Moon brings a refreshing new experience to the Indie-Soul music scene, blending soulful vocals over contemporary guitar and electronic instruments.
Originally from Baltimore MD, Grayson trained classically in voice from a young age in the hopes of being a leading tenor in opera performances. Over years of musical study, Grayson discovered his love for composition, larger than life soundscapes and an eclectic blend of musical genres.
His vocal influence swells with greats such as Sam Cooke and Bill withers, Frank Sinatra and Elvis Presley. With a songwriting style based in folk as well as traditional pop, Grayson combines his favorite styles together in a wide array of musical textures and “feels”.
These styles clashed and swirled in his practice, eventually blending together into many nuanced arrangements of popular song covers. Grayson began life as a professional musician when he took those songs to the restaurants and local hangouts of Baltimore, quickly becoming a crowd favorite and a regular in the city’s gig circuit.
Grayson has since released 2 EP’s “I Hope You’re Ok” and “POWERLINES”, spaced apart by 3 singles, “Be Mine”, “Crush”, and “Empire”.
His music has garnered over 220k streams on Spotify, 50k of which came from his 2020 single release “Empire”.
Grayson Has played a variety of festivals including Baltimore’s own Artscape and Frozen Harbor; “The 11th Hour showcase” at SXSW, Johns Hopkins Spring fair, and Great Grapes Food and Wine festival with Vertical Horizon.
Since he began performing in the Baltimore area Grayson has also made it a point to give back to his hometown with a number of fundraisers and events benefitting Kennedy Krieger institute, Ulman Foundation, Sharp Dressed Man, and the Irvine Nature Center to name a few.
