Released May 13th 2022 “The album started with the song ‘Germany’ — a tribute to my connection with my grandfather and his experience storming Juno Beach on D-Day,” explains Morgan. “I wrote the song after returning from touring Germany, which gave me the opportunity to reflect on how different my experience was in Europe then his would have been.”

I’m connected to you through our history The blood the battles the brutality I know it wasn’t you and I know it wasn’t me It started out in Germany

Making that connection tangible and somewhat haunting, Morgan’s grandfather’s voice actually became part of the recording.

“Luckily, I was able to find original audio clips that capture him sharing some of his experience at Juno Beach,” he recalls. “When I hear his voice on the song, all the memories come rushing back.”

Unearthing that treasure of his Grandfather’s recordings talking about his WWII days brought his experiences so much closer to home for Morgan in writing “Germany.”

“I was fortunate enough that he was able to share some of his darker, more intimate experiences of the war. Through the tears and the pain, it solidified a bond between us that is unique and part of what makes me who I am today.”

And every breath I take and every step I take it brings me back to you When the earth shakes my heart begins to take I pull away from you
