East Anglian rock/
Americana collective Morganway
announce their first official single ‘Frozen In Our Time’ along with a
selection of concerts and festivals across the UK. The single is a first listen
at what to expect from their upcoming debut album, due summer 2019.
Founded by twin
brothers Callum (vocals/guitar) and Kieran Morgan (lead guitar), and
inspired by the likes of Bruce Springsteen, Fleetwood Mac and other classic
guitar bands such as The Eagles, Morganway have quickly built a name for
themselves on the UK live circuit. With accolades from Whispering Bob Harris,
two nominations from the BCMA awards, support slots with The Shires and an Under The
Apple Tree session already under their belt, there is no doubt Morganway
are heading on a skyward trajectory.
The first single
is a perfect introduction to their expansive sound and captivating harmonies
that have been wowing audience members. It’s a journey through a musical
landscape rarely visited in contemporary music, as the harmony of musicianship,
arrangement and overall compatibility of a large group of performers meld
flawlessly. As founding member Callum puts it, “I am the main songwriter, although each
one of us plays a vital role in the overall sound and experience of Morganway.”

“It’s a great single” – Pete Englefield Spectrum Internet Radio
It’s a sentiment that rings especially true when you consider the
components that make up Morganway. As three and four piece harmonies complement
a classic band set up with additional support from keyboard and fiddle, the
6-piece each bring their own divergent musical upbringings to the mix.
Ensembles of this caliber provide something often thought to be a thing of the
past, as the whole is most certainly greater than the sum of all parts.
Together under the leadership of the Morgan brothers, Morganway stands as one
of the most formidable live and studio acts of the past decade.
Standing beside Kieran and Callum Morgan are violin maker and former
circus performer Nicole J Terry
(fiddle/ vocals), longtime musical collaborator and lead vocalist on ‘Frozen In
Our Time’ SJ Mortimer (vocals), part
time DJ and genre-defying keyboard player Matt
Brocklehurst, and rhythm keeper Ed
Bullinger (drums).
