Welcome to “Morning Light” my newest album and first foray into the genre of chamber-folk, made entirely in my hometown community of Stratford, Ontario.

When listening to this album for the first time, I feel it is best served with a morning coffee, in front of a window.  Or at lease a time when you can hopefully sneak a moment for yourself.  

As time goes on, I think you'll find this record to be like a box of Rheo Thompson assorted chocolates. Each track similar, but unique at its core. Perhaps most acutely savoured one or three pieces at a time. 

Physical CDs are now available and are shipping from my store. Their packaging was designed by acclaimed Stratford, Ontario artist Scott McKowan, and exclusively features the photography of Dave Brosha throughout the accompanying 24-page booklet.

Please feel free to leave your comments and questions in the guest book included at the bottom of this page. I look forward to reading them and hearing from you. 

Enjoy, Dayna

"Each chapter is named after one of my songs and chronicles the writing of and subsequent adventures that song led me on. It was so fun to write and I’m so excited to share this book with the world!" - Dayna

In engaging prose as smooth and colourful as her Juno-nominated melodies, Dayna Manning’s memoir provides a window into the world of her songwriting. In Many Moons, Manning depicts her close encounters with Canadian legends such as Burton Cummings, Chris Hadfield, and William Lishman, providing readers with an intimate view of a musician's life and up-close encounters with some of Canada’s greatest personalities. Manning’s charming debut memoir is a fascinating read, spanning Canada itself as well as a three-decade career in an ever-changing music business.

Books ship every Friday. Please let us know if you would like your autographed copy personalized.
