    One of my favorite artists I've discovered on TH-cam. She's phenomenal! Everything she did with Post Modern Jukebox is awesome too.

    Morgan trained at juilliard for Opera, she also appears on Broadway and it's part of postmodern jukebox. She is multitalented

    Her voice is just nuts.... Thanks for reacting to another Morgan track Dominic - always a joy to hear her. Morgan is American - but we'll claim her if you want us too Dominic !! Hahaha....

    A couple of us told you her whole back story when you reacted to her singing "I Knew Your Were Waiting" last time. She was classically trained at Juilliard, started off doing Broadway shows, after doing Motown The Musical, and a few other Rhythm n Blues themed shows, she fell in love with that genre and Jazz and started preforming solo. The man playing guitar next to her is her husband, and a well established guitarists himself. They are both American, and have lived in the heart of Harlem the last decade or so.
    My two favorite covers she does, "Fooled Around and Fell in Love" and "Do Right Woman, Do Right Man" sung with Marc Broussard

    Wow indeed! I've been a BIG fan of Morgan for a few years now. Absolutely LOVE her!!!
    Morgan was born in Boise, Idaho and is now living in Harlem, NY. She studied opera at Julliard (her classical training is why she has those big pipes) and has played on Broadway. She didn't appear in any of the talent shows because of the age limitation. She was signed under Epic Records and released two albums. After she was released from Epic she started her own band and is married to the guitar player, Doug Wamble. She also is an indy under Hedonist Records LLC. If I may suggest, check these songs from Morgan out as well.
    All About That Bass, Meghan Trainor. This is where I first discovered Morgan James th-cam.com/video/aLnZ1NQm2uk/w-d-xo.html
    Dream On, Aerosmith - The first time I heard this cover I just couldn't get Steven Tyler's voice out of my head. It wasn't until I listened for the third time that I could truly appreciate Morgan's cover.
    th-cam.com/video/Yq4KA0mUnC8/w-d-xo.html
    Call My Name, Prince - Prince rarely gives permission to record his songs but within 5 minutes of hearing Morgan's cover, he said yes.
    th-cam.com/video/DhbS3BFtXDk/w-d-xo.html
    Ain't No Way, Aretha Franklin - Morgan holds a note for an amazing 24 seconds @ 1:42 into the video. I get frisson every time I hear it! th-cam.com/video/3qw9SjAYHEg/w-d-xo.html
    And yet, still a couple more. Who Wants to Live Forever, Queen - th-cam.com/video/7Ttx0gHKfY8/w-d-xo.html
    Take Me to Church, Hozier - th-cam.com/video/9C0xGB73Uuc/w-d-xo.html
    And just for the fun of it, here's one that I recorded the first time I saw her live in concert at The Dakota Jazz Club in Minneapolis, MN doing her title track Reckless Abandon
    ​th-cam.com/video/rAgYQj7bBes/w-d-xo.html
    Morgan is one of the hardest workers in the industry. For example, Morgan dreamed that she performed Jesus Christ Superstar as Jesus and Shoshana Bean was Judas. She decided to put on an entire female production of JSC and started hand selecting some of the best vocalists, performers, musicians, producers and engineers in the business - all females. She put on a live concert at he the Highline Ballroom and later got Pledge Music involved to raise some money to produce an album. Unfortunately Pledge Music stole everyone's money (allegedly) and filed bankruptcy. She's managed to release several of the songs anyway and is still doing what she can to release the entire thing. To paraphrase her, “It will get released, I just don't know when.”
    Check out Gethsemane, you WILL be impressed!

    So yeah, I'm a Morgan fan. Big time. Check her out at www.morganjamesonline.com/

    No she's American, and imo in the top tier of what I would call 20th century American vocals. And by that I mean the source of all great American music. Blues, Jazz, Soul, etc... I hope you'll listen to more from her such as, Maps (never heard the orig. but hers is glorious), Take me to Church (also amazing).

    Yes, you have covered Morgan before. 2 weeks ago covering "I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me)" and with PMJ covering "All about that Bass" IFIRC you referred to her as Gwyneth because you didn't know who she was and you did that reaction because of Haley Reinhart.
    And she is not an Aussie she is from Boise Idaho and is opera trained at Juilliard.
