Morgan

Morgan, groupe formé en septembre 2012 par quatre musiciens originaires de Salaberry-de-Valleyfield au Québec, propose une musique alliant le Country et le punk, tout en flirtant avec les rythmiques Bluegrass Sud-Américaines ainsi que les ''Irish drinking songs''.

Le groupe lance de façon indépendante un premier album en Juin 2014 baptisé Get a horse. Durant cette période,en plus de remporter les honneurs de la compétion ''House band'' sur les ondes de la chaine québécoise Musique Plus, la formation se produit un peu partout â travers le Québec. Que se soit dans un bar, une salle de spectacle ou un festival, la recette de Morgan est simple. Des chansons énergiques, entraînantes et accrocheuses. Des textes punchés appuyés par de solides harmonies vocales. Beaucoup d'humours , d'alcools et de sueurs. Tous les ingrédients sont réunis pour un spectacle explosif et sans temps mort durant lequel le groupe balance â fond de train ses airs rassembleurs et festifs.

La formation maintenant supporté par le label montréalais Stomp Record, lance un deuxième album intitulé Morgan Deli en début d'été 2017.

Dans les dernières années Morgan a partagé la scène avec :
Mad Caddies, Less than Jake, Planet Smashers, Old Man Markley, The Creepshow, Grimskunk, Mass Hysteria, Morning Glory, Tagada Jones, The Mahones, The Flatliners, Quebec Redneck Bluegrass project, The Dreadnoughts, The Stanfields, The Brains et plusieurs autres.
Born from the ashes of the Quebec farmhouse they accidentally burned down in 2012, Morgan is a five-piece posse of misfits that mixes punk, country and Irish drinking songs with chainsaws. For real. Their catchy songs and barber shop harmonies will make everything that's going bad in your life just a teeny tiny bit better. One of the perks of Morgan's music is that it tends to make your mouth run dry real quick. So quickly in fact, you should just go get yourself a beer right now while reading this stupid bio and get it over with.

After the tragic fire in their beloved farm in 2012, Morgan became homeless and broke. Fuck. They needed to find a way to get the wheels back on the wagon and quick. After doing a little research, they found out that the easiest way to make loads of money was to play music, specifically punk rock music, because that is (of course) where all the money is. They took an old washboard from the farm, dusted off the chainsaw and picked up a couple of busted instruments from the local pawnshop and started writing some tunes. Two weeks later, they won the Musique Plus house band competition… which they never really signed up for. That same year, they unintentionally released their first album: Get A Horse. They sold thousands of copies, made a shit load of money and rebuilt their magnificent farmhouse and lived happily ever after… the end.

Well, they say lightning never strikes twice.....but it sure did in the summer of 2016 when their newly built barn burnt down once again. Shit fuck. What started as a small bush fire quickly escalated and destroyed their new home. They found out the hard way that fighting fire with some more fire isn't always the answer. Broke and homeless once again, Morgan knew exactly what to do.

Their much-anticipated album entitled Morgan Deli is set to come out Fall 2017 on the delicious Stomp Records, featuring 12 mouthwatering songs that are sure to whet your appetite and whatever else needs whetting.

Over the years, Morgan had the pleasure to share the stage with a bunch of swell folks such as: Mad Caddies, Less than Jake, Planet Smashers, The Creepshow, Grimskunk, Mass Hysteria, Tagada Jones, The Mahones, The Flatliners, Quebec Redneck Bluegrass Project, Bernard Adamus, Les Dales Hawerchuck, The Dreadnoughts, The Brains and many more.

Sooo whether you're having a casual cold one with your buds or if you're freebasing speedballs on the highway running from the cops, Morgan is sure to put everything right where it should be.
