"Hailing from the coal mining town of Beckley in the Appalachian region of West Virginia, singer-songwriter Cashavelly Morrisonwas always interested in the arts.

"The debut album The Kingdom Belongs to a Child represents a confessional gateway into loss, having suffered a miscarriage in 2010 and her father last year, as well as her deeply held values, notably equal rights and empowerment for women."
