Maren Morris (www.marenmorris.com) relates to folk musicians/singer-songwriters like Patty Griffin in the most graceful way. But it doesn’t stop there. Maren’s country roots and indie spirit have forged a unique alchemy of sound beyond the confines of preset genre molds. No wonder Fort Worth Weekly, who called Maren a “tiny Texas hurricane of blue-eyed soul”, voted the diminutive songstress the Best Female Vocalist 5 years in a row. She doesn’t use the term “cross-over” although that’s what it is. She’s more likely to say she’s very excited that multiple audiences have found her work relatable. In March 2011, Maren Morris released her 3rd album, Live Wire.
Maren has stretched her wings playing France’s Equiblues Festival in 2008 & 2010. She’s toured the UK, worked along side David Foster and Paul Williams to assist musically inclined youth hone their songwriting skills for the Grammy Foundation’s Grammy Camp. She played Summerfest in 2006, America’s largest outdoor music festival, along with Heart, Social Distortion and Roger Waters. Her many achievements have brought her to this stellar nexus. If you loved her #1 hit single “All That it Takes”, you’re really going to love the new album, Live Wire.
Live Wire is a celebration of firsts: the first time Maren collaborated, the first album where she plays piano, the first time she experimented with analog synthesizer and other unique instrumentations. Even the inspiring artwork on this album represents another first, and a special connection. Really, it’s all nothing short of beautiful.
When asked which of her songs is her favorite, she answers, “It’s always the last one I’ve written. Always.”
Maren Morris’ band consists of herself and Taylor Tatsch , plus Graham Smith and Blaine Crews.
