Description

Imagine a voice big enough to knock you to the floor—and sensitive enough to make you shiver. Imagine a singer with a perfect ear, an actor’s way with words, and a sense of time as sure as an atomic clock. Here she is. Morgan James has it all: soul, charm, chops, blue-chip musicianship, and the kind of absolute individuality that makes her singing as recognizable as a fingerprint. What’s more, she sounds as much at ease on the bandstand of a nightclub like Dizzy’s Coca-Cola as she does standing in a Broadway spotlight. I think she’s the most promising young vocalist to come along so far this century. I first heard Morgan in a performance of Guys and Dolls and went home asking myself, “Who is that?” Now I know. So will you. Terry Teachout, The Wall Street Journal Ms. James is a phenomenal talent whose feel for classic soul music is bone deep. She is also a songwriter whose tough, concise compositions are textbook examples of punchy aphoristic R&B. Stephen Holden, The New York Times
