Moni's album of sixteen original songs has gained various media attention within its first six months, and has surpassed100,000 total streams across distribution platforms.
With a love of performing, Moni is an active artist who loves house, basement and club shows all over New England. Most recently, Moni sold out of her custom vinyl live session at Leevstall Studios in Brooklyn, NYC.
Her songs go so far beyond what I tend to expect from young singer/songwriters (a cliched take on the angst of young love/loss, etc.) Her work has a mastery and an emotional depth that is impressive, and her songs convey real emotion. I had tears listening to her album of stories.-David D/fan
Moni Grace has established her own unique style and positioning as an artist who has found her own spot for creative expression with down-to-earth honesty .- (Performers on the Go)
Moni's specific and evocative lyrics and impressive vocals, ranging equally between a raw, lamenting quality and impressive high tempo expression are primary to the album's storytelling.-Broadway World Music
