Morgan Lane and the Passengers

Hailing from Rhode Island, Morgan Johnston is an indie folk singer-songwriter stomping, strumming, speaking, and singing her way to empowering both herself and her listeners. Her lyrics are inspired by the natural landscape of places as much as by the emotional landscape of human experiences. While most often found singing with her guitar, Morgan is known to experiment with different stringed instruments and tunings as well as vocal arrangements on loop pedal. As a music therapist, she is constantly reminded of the healing and community building power of the music she aims to share. Joined by Armand Aromin on body percussion and fiddle, Flannery Brown on cello, Caitlin Gosciminski on upright bass, Dovas Lietuvninkas on cornet, and Jessica Kion on harmonies, they make up the band, Morgan Lane and the Passengers.
