MORTON

MORTON
Hailing from The North of France, Morton is best described as explosive,
live, catchy, melodic and talented. Morton delivers great songwriting
wrapped in a power pop rock package with big guitars, hard-hitting drums,
and boundless energy. Switching between diverse tempos and melodies,
Morton appeals to a vast array of audiences. A rock band whose music
features driving guitar riffs, melodic vocal hooks, sucker-punch arrangement,
and honest lyrics.
THE SOUND
Morton's musical influences, eclectic personalities and incredible passion for
the songs they write and play, define the band's soul. They truly have an all
or nothing approach to creating music. It was mid 2007 when singer & songwriter
Graham Morton started working on the album Lives in Millinium. After sifting
through twelve songs of rainy days, lost love, and more lost love it was clear that
Graham's first professionally produced album was going to be ballad centered.
However, as the band's sound developed so has the song writing. Morton's sound
has evolved from power ballads to power rock. Their persistent determination to
write and record has caught the attention of the underground music scene and fans
across the world.

"The swirling guitars and melodies of Morton are ear grabbing from the first licks of
Under my skin. This band gets it.the complete package."
"Solid commercial pop/rock tune. Good vocal and band performance, good modern
mix and production. Catchy chorus hook. Overall very tight."
"I really like Morton. I feel that listeners will wake up hearing it. Refreshing mesh of
Beatlesque harmonies infused with the stuff the Who were doing, and give it actually
a New Wave sound. You know, like being in a red-shift time warp and making these
sounds coalesce perfectly."
