James Vincent McMorrow in Concert


July 24, 8:30 pm

James Vincent McMorrow is a platinum-selling artist who has independently clocked up over 1 billion streams and reached #1 in his home of Ireland amongst other achievements.

Over the last decade, Dublin-born McMorrow has established himself as a multi-faceted songwriter with a vast spectrum of styles. He sings, produces, plays everything, and has a network of collaborators that stretches around the world. He’s crafted a home for himself in the worlds of hip-hop and textured R&B, and even worked on Drake’s 2016 album, Views. It’s fair to say his early days of being pigeon-holed as an ‘indie folk singer-songwriter’ are long dead.

He has  toured the world extensively including sold out shows at the Sydney Opera  House, London Barbican and the Los Angeles Wiltern Theatre. His first six albums , Early in the Morning, Post Tropical, We Move, True Care,  Grapefruit Season (Columbia/RCA) have  accumulated well in excess of 1 billion streams.

McMorrow’s organic, word-of-mouth rise to international acclaim, beginning  with his platinum-selling 2010 debut, Early in the Morning, which reached #1  in his home country of Ireland, silver status in the UK, Gold status in Australia  , and earned numerous award nods in the process.

The follow up, 2014’s Post Tropical, secured McMorrow’s place as a globally  recognized musician, and led to sold out tours across the world, including  multiple nights at The Sydney Opera House, London’s Barbican, The  Roundhouse, Los Angeles Wiltern Theatre and a residency at Dublin’s  National Concert Hall aswell as a host of high profile international festival  slots at Coachella, Glastonbury, Roots Picnic and Electric Picnic.

We Move, released in September 2016, earned raves from PitchforkPigeons  & PlanesNPR Music and landed top spot in Ireland. The album found him  working with some of today’s biggest producers, including Nineteen85  (Drake, dvsn), Two Inch Punch (Sam Smith, Years & Years) and Frank Dukes  (Kanye West, Rihanna), as well as the legendary Jimmy Douglass (Donny  Hathaway, Timbaland) and John O’Mahony (Metric, Coldplay).
