A singer songwriter & visual artist with a pure voice, both intimate & powerful, Linzi Jane Morgan writes poetic songs with timeless observations.

Morgan connected with new audiences whilst studying her Master’s degree. Threading her song writing & visual works together for the first time; what evolved was a body of work which explored the cycle of grief & the nature of hope; the award winning ‘Open Book’ was first woven through song & video drawing, the same  narrative was then brought to life in print & mixed media book making & finally, a large ceramic installation of the song, with every element created in clay, was staged with a musical landscape, her moving illustrations video.

Morgan was born in the Midlands UK & started writing songs at 11 years, co forming her first band with friends from her village at the age of 14, they went on to record demos with Johnny Rivers, by 21 she had won a Nordhoff Robins songwriter award (after recording her songs on a 4 track in her bedsit bedroom, she sent them into a Radio 1 competition), she then signed to Warner Chappell’s as a songwriter.

After a career in the arts, teaching in various settings, inspired by her master's project, she then took 2 years to create her first ever solo body of music, working closely with Paul Johnston, (Rhythm Studios), Morgan traces round the edges of time & fills in the gaps, crafting soaring vocal harmonies & songs that tell stories combined with a pure & real sound. Morgan experiments with creating drawn images that coexist with her lyrics, working to increase the connection with her audiences & to champion the hand drawn, her work is both raw & from the heart.

‘It’s my own little rage against AI, but it’s important for me to keep the elements of paper & pencil, the drawn, the painted, the created & the creation process because I believe it is a place of great healing and connection’.

‘This new body of songs was started as a demo, and over the following 2 years we kept recording, I was writing new songs, re-working old songs & just loving the process of writing & recording. Feeling blessed to have found my sound with harmonies & vocals, working with Paul Johnston, co-producing my songs @ Rhythm Studios, Paul is both amazing sound engineer & multi-talented musician. We were in the first band together back in our teens, so kind of amazing to come full circle too. Marion Fleetwood joined us to play on the demos & has played on every song for both albums, her playing brings another layer of beauty, a sublime timelessness, which has quite often had me in tears, just beautiful’.
