Summary: Marley Munroe announces herself as a force to be reckoned with on her debut single, the bittersweet, pop-inflected soul tune Boomerang an instant classic that finds Munroe wringing deep emotion from lyrics she penned about a love that keeps winging its way back. Munroe premiered an acoustic version of "Boomerang" at New York City's Rockwood Music Hall in December and everyone in the room was rapt. When this girl steps onstage and unleashes tales of heartbreak with a rich, sultry belt, you can't take your eyes off of her.Her colossal vocal talent and outsized charisma, along with her natural songwriting ability have led Munroe to a production deal with the team of Sam Watters and Louis Biancaniello (Kelly Clarkson, Natasha Bedingfield) and a recording contract with Epic Records, which will release Munroe's as-yet-untitled debut album this year. Munroe has been in the studio co-writing songs with Watters and Biancaniello (who are also part of The Runaways) that showcase her ability to transition easily between soul and pop without sacrificing an ounce of authenticity. She may sound like the second coming of Gladys Knight, but Munroe refuses to be pigeonholed as a soul singer.
