About Me

MORRISSON FULL-LENGTH DEBUT ALBUM AVAILABLE NOW ON
In the world of dance music, Morrisson is a name that is becoming increasingly popular with the rise of the deep, soulful House Music scene. He is very involved in its current growth as a new vocalist, songwriter and producer!
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 baseball, I just naturally love 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 new 2008 release "After My Love," are synonymous with his emergence onto the San Francisco house music scene. His first release, the 131 bpm disco-house track "Love of My Life", received instant support from San Francisco radio and club DJ's nationwide 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 deep, soulful house. The result earned him his first spot as a featured vocalist and co-writer on Papp's NeoDisco release "Fall For You." Morrisson continues to write and perform vocals for upcoming releases from New Mondo (Vincent Kwok & DJ MFR), Finna, Groove Junkies, and Stereofunk as well as producing his own tracks such as the 2006 release of "You Can't Go Wrong" and 2007's "So Cool."
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."
