Megan Bonnell
Myspace
To see Megan Bonnell in person, attention is immediately paid to her gorgeous features, charming personality and the thought that this girl should be a model for some brand name designer, but stick her behind a piano, in front of a crowd of fifty plus curious individuals and all your preconceived notions fade. This was the case during Bonnell's recent self-titled EP release party at Toronto's Magpie.
Her silky voice with an air of Rachael Yamagata and eclectic sound, Bonnell is commanding even from a piano bench. Turning Magpie's crowd into fans with her indie folk-pop a mixture of beautiful ballads and playful, cheery pop. Despite her debut EP's length (just three songs) Megan uses her talents wisely showcasing her lyrical and vocal strengths.
In just a few short days, Bonnell has turned up the volume from simple songstress with a piano to the 'It' girl, with her sold out EP release performance and earning the honour of CHARTattack's 'Song of the Day' for her track 'The Wind' off her debut EP. The simple explanation is Megan Bonnell is a great musician, but that's selling her short. If recent events are any indication, and more on the way from Bonnell including two more performances in Ottawa and Montreal, as well as work on her debut full-length album, it's just the tip of the iceberg for the ethereal beauty.
