Emerging singer-songwriter Malachi Gagnon is an all-American 18 year old, born and raised in rural New Hampshire. Malachi was brought up on small town values and credits his family and their encouragement for giving him the confidence to believe in himself before he ever played his first chord. “When I was 12, I sang out loud in front of my family for the first time at an impromptu living room talent show”. The very next day Malachi’s dad took him to the music store and bought him his first guitar.

Over the last three years, Malachi has emerged as an up-and-coming original pop-folk singer-songwriter and has released thirteen critically acclaimed singles which have garnered millions of streams and found him on some of the most notable editorial playlists including New Music Friday Nashville and Next From Nashville, as well as a feature in SPIN. In addition, Malachi has worked with some of the biggest songwriters and producers in the industry including David Ray Stevens (Jelly Roll, Shaboozey, Teddy Swims) and Ryan Hewitt (The Lumineers, Noah Kahan, Red Hot Chili Peppers). After relocating to Lynchburg, VA in 2025, Malachi has continued to light up stages and stereos and has begun working on his debut EP set for release in 2026.
