Meredith Moon announces the release of her new studio album From Here To The Sea. Moon’s third album, and first for Compass Records, finds the Canadian-born songwriter and instrumentalist taking a slight detour from the Appalachian old-time roots of the album's predecessor, Constellations. Produced and recorded in Ontario and Nashville by Colin Linden (Lucinda Williams, T-Bone Burnett, Bruce Cockburn) and featuring Rebecca Lovell (Larkin Poe), Lillie Mae Rische & Dominic Davis (Jack White), Julian Taylor, George Receli (Bob Dylan), and Jerry Douglas, among others, the album explores avenues of blues, folk, and folk-rock, and even incorporates elements of old-time jazz.

The album starts with "East City Blues,"a loping modern day folk/blues that showcases Moon’s nimble vocals and finger-style guitar. Moon explains: "The song was written in May 2022 when I was living on the west side of Peterborough, Ontario, in a not-so-safe neighborhood, longing to be living in the "East City,"but also longing for a person who was out of reach at the time."

The album's first single “Sapphire Blue,"is an acoustic-based, mid-tempo groover that evokes a feeling of mystery in the search for an escape from a 'dark force' of sorts, and tells a story of driving across the continent looking for the light with which to lift it, with Moon’s plaintive vocals answered by Linden’s vibey electric guitar. Other stand outs include the traditional song "Lulu Girl"which gives Meredith a chance to showcase her clawhammer banjo chops, and "Category Five,"which Meredith wrote in Key West and speaks to the message of following your heart.

Meredith Moon started writing songs at the age of eight, and growing up immersed in folk music including the music of her father Gordon Lightfoot, became a self-taught guitar player at the age of fourteen. A few years later she found her sound as a busker on sidewalks from Halifax to Vancouver. She spent years traveling across Canada, and the world, by means of road and rail, finding inspiration for her unique style of songs which are crafted in a true storyteller's fashion.
