ABOUT MORGAN EVANS:
Hailing from Newcastle, Australia, a steel and coal town on the east coast, Evans recalls an early interest in music when he started playing guitar at the age of 13. He spent his teenage years seeing the country through the windshield of an old van as he toured in a band with his brother.
Raised listening to artists like Garth Brooks, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Creedence Clearwater Revival and Led Zeppelin, it was at the age of 17 when a Keith Urban concert changed his life. From that point on, he knew music was exactly what he wanted to spend his life creating.
Signed
to Warner Music Australia since
2012, he now continues his relationship with the Warner Music family in Nashville. To celebrate, Evans put together
a one of a kind
loop-pedal mashup honoring
some of his new WMN label mates, which he has now followed with a second video, featuring his country
music favourites.
Morgan was the winner of a record three Country Music Channel Music Awards in 2014, and signed as a presenter, host, and ambassador for the Country Music Channel in Australia. He has toured with Country superstars including Alan Jackson and Taylor Swift, as well as headlining his own tours in Australia and New Zealand. Evans signed to William Morris Endeavour Agency (world’s largest talent agency).
