Misty Dawn

From the bright lights of Broadway theatre to a honky tonk near you, Misty Dawn is out to turn your preconceived notions of what country music is upside down. Born in Fort Worth, TX and currently based in Nashville, Dawn is an unconventional outlaw who got her start in theatre at the age of six before pivoting to music, where she writes modern day outlaw ballads about women’s equality and other issues dear to her. Dawn’s sound is a hodge-podge of influences that centers on a homage to the classic Texas hill country twang she calls home. Sprinkled throughout are also hints of jazz, show tunes, church hymns and more that coalesce into what she’s dubbed “show country” due to its lyrical plot twists and vocal gymnastics that pair her theatrical upbringing and musical ambitions together.
