BIOGRAPHY
In the world of dance music, Morrisson is a name that
is becoming increasingly popular with the rise of the
deep, soulful San Francisco House Music scene. He is
becoming very involved in its
current growth as a hot new singer, songwriter and producer
from San Francisco!
California native, representing San Francisco, Morrisson
has had a love for music from day one. "Music is
not really something I ever made a conscious decision
to get into. Like some kids naturally love to play basketball,
I just naturally loved listening to music. Music, in
general, has been a driving force in my life for as
long as I can remember."
"Here comes the one you've been looking for",
the opening lyrics to Morrisson's first release on his
own Ovation Music Recordings label, "After My Love"
are synonymous with his emergence onto the San Francisco
house music scene in 2002. His second release, again
on his own label, "Love of My Life", received
instant support from San Francisco radio and club DJ's
which would eventually lead to his achieving top 15
chart position in Billboard Magazine. In 2003 Morrisson's
resume received a huge star when he met veteran house
music DJ and producer Julius Papp during a recording
session. While continuing to produce his own tracks,
he began laying vocals and writing songs with Papp,
eventually finding his niche in soulful house. The result
earned him a spot as a featured vocalist and co-writer
on Papp's NeoDisco releases "Fall For You"
and "Getaway Love" and most recently on Julius
Papp and Dave Warrin's 2007 release of Deep Shadow.
Morrisson continues to write and perform vocals for
upcoming releases from New Mondo (Vincent Kwok &
DJ MFR), Finna, Groove Junkies, and Trevor Simpson as
well as
producing his own tracks such as the March 2007 release
of "So Cool."
As a dance music artist and vocalist, Morrisson has
achieved a status that has allowed him to perform at
some of San Francisco's hottest parties and venues such
as "Salted" at Mighty, "Remedy"
at DNA Lounge, Pink-SF, and Cardiff Lounge in San Jose
and he also received much love when he performed in
Miami for the 2007 Winter Music Conference.
While dance music has always been Morrisson's first
love, his ambitions and talents have also landed him
in TV commercials, on-camera co-host spots for Macy's,
Voice-over characters in independent films (including
the upcoming "Flower Fokes," and, as he puts
it, "if you don't blink" he can even be seen
as an extra in the "La Vie Boheme" sequence
of the movie "RENT."
Morrisson's passion for house music is defined in his
own words with, "Dance music of all kinds, whatever
kind of music makes you dance, is not just about movement
of the body. It's also about movement of the soul and
inspiration of the mind…all which is led by the
rhythm of the heart. And since the heart is all about
living and what you love, you should follow yours and
lead your own way....to a dance floor near you.
