Getting to know Merché Moore is almost as easy as looking in the mirror, if you are a teen. Lay aside her amazing vocal ability and the fact that she has been singing and performing since she was a toddler, and it appears Merché is your typical 21stcentury teenage girl – complete with a healthy text messaging habit and a young R&B crooner by the name of Chris Brown serving as the man of her dreams. Additional clues to her youthful personality rest in her infectious smile, and let’s not forget theloves of her life – God, family, music, shopping, and FOOD! However, dig just beyond the surface,and you’ll find that there is truly more to this young artist than meets the eye.

Today, Merché is the first digitally exclusive artist on the EMI Gospel label, and she’s ready for her first digital singles , You’re the One and Pray, to hit airwaves and mp3 players across the country. On the first single, You’re the One, Merché shares writer credits with noted industry producer David “Da Monsta” Lynch. You’rethe One is an upbeat, Pop/R&B-influenced track with lyrics that remind the listener that “No matter what we’re going through, Jesus has been so good,”says Merché. Pray, written by Antonio Neal, balances out the two tracks with a ballad-like, sultry flavor and a heavy guitar melody.
