After Morley’s recent completion of her latest album, SEEN, the soulful songstress from New York will perform two live shows in Toronto this month. Morley’s first performance is an acoustic set at Harlem (67 Richmond Street East) on Saturday, September 15. Her second date is at the famous Revival (783 College Street West) on Tuesday, September 19 where she performs with her full band.
Known for her socially conscious lyrics and deep, soulful grooves, Morley combines her unique experiences as a former teacher in New York City’s shelters and public school system and as a choreographer (Alvin Ailey, Max Roach) to create songs that have attracted diverse audiences all over the world. With influences that range from Bob Marley to Bob Dylan, her music is informed by real life and has been compared to the likes of Joni Mitchell, Nina Simone, Sade and Annie Lennox.
Doors: 7:00 pm. Show: 8:00 pm. Tickets - $10.00 at the door
