Bio

Born on Vancouver Island and raised in Northern Alberta, Moira Bren is a singer/songwriter now based in Halifax, Nova Scotia. After moving across the country the summer before high school, Moira started an Instagram singing account where she posted mini-covers every week. From covering 500+ songs over the years, Moira has gradually gained a following of encouraging listeners.

The support she received inspired Moira to release “Wish” – her first single as a solo artist in the summer of 2018. The reaction to the song has been very positive – garnering over 525k streams as well as claiming a #1 spot on The East Coast Countdown, a nationally-syndicated radio program.

Moira Bren’s debut EP “6 Is Green” was nominated for a 2021 ECMA award. Tracks from the EP have been placed on several Spotify editorial playlists including Folk & Friends, indie pop & chill and Fresh Finds: Pop – as well as Amazon Music’s Fresh Folk & Acoustic editorial playlist and Modern Folk station.

The title of Moira’s EP references her synesthesia experience. All her life Moira has associated numbers, letters and words with colours. For example, March is red, Thursday is purple, and 6 is green.
