ABOUT MORGAN GOLD
Morgan Gold is a Chicago-based singer, songwriter, musician, and performer. Morgan developed a skill for songwriting at the age of ten, and began exploring her interests in vocal performance and acting. Her endeavors lead her down a variety of paths including musical theatre and comedy. Although she found joy and promising opportunities in those fields, her love for music and songwriting would always find its way back to her. In early 2018, Morgan took advantage of her versatile performance background, and began her music career that continues to this day.
Within 2018 alone, Morgan released two EP’s and two singles, combining for over 11,000 streams on Spotify. She experimented with a variety of sounds, being inspired by a wide range of artists from The Weeknd to Grateful Dead. She began to pick up momentum through live performances, earning sets at venues such as Subterranean in Chicago. Audience members described her sets as “captivating”, and ”a genuine experience”. She took those descriptors, and began to cultivate a “captivating”, stimulating sound that would combine the factors of pop, R&B and hip-hop.
In late 2018, Morgan met J. Khaga, who would soon become her executive producer. The two spent the remainder of the year constructing this new sound into a 5-track project. The project, “I’ve Seen Enough, I Know What It Does” was released on May 10th, 2019. Its dark, cinematic atmosphere instantly reached many new listeners within Chicago. Within the first week of being released, the project gained nearly 4,000 streams. The project has been featured on blogs such as DOPECAUSEWESAID, Aupium, Chicago Now, and Study Breaks Magazine. After seeing the reactions from listeners, Morgan knew that this was to be her sound.
