MYROL
After extensive tours of Europe, New Zealand and Australia,
JOANNE & HALEY MYROL have decided to make music their
livelihood together! They have united as a mother-daughter duo
called “MYROL” - embracing a special blend of harmonies that
can really only be found in families.
HALEY MYROL was hit hard by the music bug. She was raised in
the music business. “Some of my first memories ever, are lying
in bed, night after night, listening as a small child, while mom’s
band practiced – drums and all - in the basement right below my
bedroom. It was my loud, country lullaby.”
JOANNE is no stranger to the business, either. She has been a
professional musician for years, performing on the same stages
as Corb Lund, Valdy and Collin Linden, opening for acts such as
Nitty Gritty Dirt Band and Sawyer Brown; and co-writing with the
likes of Fred J. Eaglesmith. In regard to their musicianship,
songwriting and their talent for entertaining, the most difficult
thing to do is to place a label on MYROL. The best description so
far was made at the Canadian Juno awards where Myrol was
penned as “Fusion Country”. There is a taste of many musical
genres in their material – which enables their music to be
appealing to nearly all audiences. Joanne said it best, “Music that
sounds good, feels good and that’s what we are giving our
audiences.” Their sound is proudly influenced by traditional
country; roots; bluegrass; folk; blues, and at times you will find
a bit of a rocky edge to their music.
They go where their own music it takes them, making them a
favorite among those who are seeking a refreshing sound.
Audiences also embrace JOANNE and HALEY as a mother and
daughter, for it is evident on stage that there is magic in their
relationship. Something people love to watch and most age
groups can relate to… a spirit and energy that is obviously real;
something that can’t be invented. During the two years that
“MYROL” has been performing together, highlights include a
showcase at JUNOFEST; THE CANADIAN COUNTRY MUSIC
ASSOCIATION’S SONGWRITER’S CAFé; performing for
audiences including PRINCE EDWARD, THE COUNTESS OF
WESSEX, PRINCE ALBERT OF MONACO and the VIP’s at the
WORLD GAMES; a showcase at SOUTH BY SOUTHWEST IN AUSTIN
TEXAS; the BLUEBIRD CAFƒ in Nashville; and have been awarded
GROUP OF THE YEAR BY BILLY BLOCK’S WESTERN BEAT
MAGAZINE in Nashville TN.
