Allow creativity to take whatever form its metamorphosis
dictates, and the outcome can be remarkable. Look no further than
the rise of Morgan Heritage and you will experience the brilliance
that this creativity can deliver, and has brought forth. With
hit songs like "Reggae Bring Back Love," "Don't
Haffi Dread," "Bust Up Barriers," "Down By
The River," and "Reggae Roadblock," there is no
mistaking the power of creative freedom as the group soars to
higher heights.
Until their arrival in 1992, reggae had not seen or heard a band
quite like Morgan Heritage. Self proclaimed Soldiers of the Lord,
their music breathes spirituality and positivity. Much like the
Wailers before them, Morgan Heritage captures the vibrations of
the Lord and Spirit of Rastafari in both their music and their
lives.
Born in New York, the band consists of five of the 29 children
of Denroy Morgan, former lead vocalist of the Black Eagles - lead
vocalists Una, aged 25, Peter, 23, Gramps, 24, (who also plays
the keyboards), rhythm guitarist Lukes, 21, and percussionist
Mr Mojo who is 19.
Rasta since birth, the spirit of Jah is an omnipresent in their
music. Often set in front of a penetrating roots backdrop Una,
Peter and Gramps' vocals appear more suited to R&B rhythms.
The roots sound and soulful vocals may almost be a contradiction
in terms, but here it is a wonderful contrast.
"We want to uplift people," states Peter. "We're
not trying to dictate how people should live. We're saying, know
who you are and live life to the fullest on love, peace and righteousness.
