Crystal Monee Hall is a singer/songwriter, composer/lyricist, and vocal arranger based in New York City. Her career has included roles on Broadway (RENT), sold-out tours with acclaimed musicians Mickey Hart (Grateful Dead) and Dave Schools (Widespread Panic), being a featured vocalist on Saturday Night Live, and a guest appearance on the HBO comedy-drama High Maintenance. She has released three albums (one solo as well as two with Hart), with work from her release If You Breathe called “riveting” by Billboard magazine.
A featured vocalist on Kristin Chenoweth’s For the Girls concerts at Broadway’s Nederlander Theatre, Hall’s songwriting was also featured when Chenoweth performed her original tune “Reasons for Hope,” co-written by the shows musical director, Mary-Mitchell Campbell.
Rolling Stone took notice of Hall’s performance of “Don’t Threaten Me with a Good Time” with country superstar Thomas Rhett on Saturday Night Live in 2019, noting it her “superb, soulful talents.” Rhett invited her out to his sold-out show at Madison Square Garden in September 2019 for an encore performance of the tune. She also appeared in Emmy, Tony, and Grammy-winner Ben Platt’s Netflix concert special, filmed at Radio City Music Hall in September 2019—also performing with him for The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Good Morning America, and through the run of his sold-out Sing to Me Instead tour.
