About

Kris Morris grew up in a coastal town just north of Sydney in Australia. It was a lovely place but the call of the bright lights and big smoke beckoned, calling him to peddle his heartfelt musical wares around London town. He released his debut EP ‘Little Light’ in early 2007, receiving strong reviews drawing comparisons to Ray Lamontagne, Ryan Adams, Neil Finn and Bob Dylan. Wow.

“This is a lovely, honest EP, capturing the essence of hope as well as fear. Influences such as Bob Dylan, Ray Lamontagne and Ryan Adams definitely shine through.”

“The vocal performance is spot on, as are the songs and general feel. The closest touchstone is Ray La Montagne and Little Light is well worth a listen.”

“Imagine a slightly darker, slightly more neurotic take on Crowded House and you’ll be somewhere close to where Kris Morris is coming from. The Little Light EP finds Kris Morris providing brief glimpses of a huge potential, a release that when firing on all cylinders suggests this Australian singer/songwriter capable of very impressive things.”

Much too was said of the honesty and passion of the songs and performance.

“Incredibly sincere and honest, the sad strumming of his acoustic guitar provides the perfect backing to his melodic vocals. It wont be long before Kris Morris is a household name with an instantly recognisable voice.”

“The simple melancholic strumming of the acoustic provides Kris will all the backing his voice needs. Whilst its unfair to say there’s no honesty in music these days there’s only a few people who actually go a little deeper, particularly into the not so pleasant things, but Little Light articulates this perfectly.”

The Little Light EP was also the first collaboration between Kris and the Weeks brothers. Kris wrote, sung and played acoustic guitar with Matt and Dan sharing out other instrumental duties and producing the EP. It was the start of a beautiful friendship and an exciting musical combination. The new single ‘Someone Sometimes’ is a step up for the partnership. There is much mirth and excitement about taking the show out on the road.

Kris gigs regularly in London and around the UK, playing venues including Union Chapel Islington, The Bedford, Halfmoon Putney, Betsey Trotwood, Electroacoustic Club, the Cobden Club, FOPP Records Tottenham Court Rd, and many others. Kris has done live radio sessions for BBC Radio Wales, BBC Radio Manchester and BBC Radio London. The ‘Little Light EP’ has received radio airplay on BBC Radio Wales and been playlisted on a number of independent radio stations.
