Poetic lyrics, beautiful melodies, and pure voice combine to create a seamless blend of pop and folk; think Shawn Colvin meets Joni Mitchell with a Celtic touch.

Details:
Margaret MacDonald writes and sings from the heart about love and the search for happiness, bringing an integrity and inspiration to her lyrics and music rarely seen today.

Margaret's debut CD, Other Vistas, unveils a thoughtful singer/songwriter with a strong, pure voice. Her poetic lyrics, beautiful melodies, and sparse vocal harmonies blend the pop and folk genres, with influences ranging from Sarah McLachlan to Tori Amos, Shawn Colvin to Sting, Joni Mitchell to Jewel. Margaret grew up at the piano in San Francisco surrounded by R&B, jazz, folk, and classical music; she spent several years in the United Kingdom and moved back to California in 2000.

"Thanks for your beautiful music. I picked cuts #1, #4, #5, and #9. Keep up the great work." (Laney Goodman, Women on Air: www.womenonair.com)

Other radio play for this CD includes Juliette Reidl, KCLAfm, and Lite FM in Cambridgeshire in the United Kingdom. She performs regularly with other local musicians in Los Angeles, California.

She hopes to record her second collection of songs in 2005.
