There is something very unique about Heather Morgan...and timeless too. An incredibly versatile singer-songwriter whose musical material ranges from the whimsical and slightly sublime to the heart wrentching ache and sadness of emotional loss, with all stops in between. Her writing style moves effortlessly in and out of various genres: roots/alt.country, jazz, bluegrass even some R&B, yet they flow together seemlessly. One minute you may feel a chill up your spine, or a tear may well-up in your eye, but then the next you want to dance and smile. Heather's lovely fluid voice captivates and her highly engaging presence makes you feel like an old friend by the time you leave as her warm and gregarious manner creates a special intimacy with the audience. Her band The Company of Men (which, in spite of the name, usually includes female members also) is a collective of talented musicians who join with Heather to bring you music that is emotive AND entertaining!

"Heather Morgan is a great songwriter, charting complex emotional landscapes with a few deft simple phrases. In my opinion her country-soul songs...are in league with those of Lucinda Williams and Ryan Adams. Like those artists she's a natural, an original and unmistakably distinctive."
-Howard Druckman, music journalist (Chart Magazine, Umbrella Music, SOCAN)
