Post Description

When singer/songwriter Morgan Evans releases his self-titled debut album on March 14, it will be the culmination of a musical journey that began when he started his first band at the age of thirteen.
It’s a journey that has seen the Novocastrian tour with international superstars like Taylor Swift and Alan Jackson, play to over 50,000 people in Nashville at the world’s biggest country music festival and build a large, devoted following as he’s played the length and breadth of his native land.
In 2013, Morgan was awarded the CMC New Oz Artist of the Year award at the CMC Music Awards. The award was fan voted and solidified his status as one of the hottest young performers in Australian country.
After hitting big with his debut single, the Newcastle written and Nashville recorded Big Skies, Morgan immediately made his mark on the Australian musical landscape – with a sound that fused the contemporary country of Keith Urban with the melodic rock of the Foo Fighters, fuelled by a unique passion and energy all Morgan’s own. His music is driven by an optimism shaped by life’s bumpy journey, a faith in the power of love and hard work to overcome the obstacles we all face everyday.
After seeing Morgan whip a festival crowd into a frenzy with his charismatic live presence, Warner Music offered him a recording contract and soon Morgan was in the studio with Golden Guitar winning producer Matt Fell in Sydney, recording his debut hit EP – the acclaimed Live Each Day, released in 2012.
After recording Freedom Like This, the only song on his Live Each Day EP that he didn’t write, Morgan met the song’s composer – Nashville-based ex-pat Aussie guitarist and songwriter Jedd Hughes, who had previously collaborated with Keith Urban, Emmylou Harris and Allison Krauss. The two formed an instant musical connection and soon Morgan enlisted Jedd to produce his second EP While We’re Young, which yielded multiple #1 hits, including ‘Carry On’.
It’s a musical partnership that has continued on Morgan’s debut album, again recorded in Nashville, with an all-star group of Nashville A-list musicians.
“To hear guys who played on the songs that inspired me to become a musician in the first place, playing on my songs, blew my mind,” said Morgan. “It reminded me of why I was doing this in the first place and really inspired me to take my vocals and guitar playing on the album to the next level”.
The songs that make up Morgan Evans are the result of a relentless songwriting schedule for almost a year that took Morgan to Nashville and back, and saw him tap into the deepest parts of himself.
