Pan Morigan, dual citizen of Canada and the U.S., is a singer, songwriter, composer, and multi-instrumentalist. Her songs are influenced by the wide, stormy skies and wild lakes of the mid-west, where she was raised. The experience of growing up in a city full of immigrants and seekers also helped to shape her musical imagination. Blues and Jazz, Irish, Greek, Persian, and Scottish music were everywhere to be heard, live. Friends held Irish sessions in their basements. Live Greek bands were heard in clubs with room for dancing Syrtos between tables. Pan's father made instruments for folk musicians, and the sounds of American folk, and Blues, and Persian classical music alike, were heard in the kitchen.

Pan learned that music had no boundaries and could not be fenced in. She learned to listen, sing, and write in multiple hues.
