Last year, 5-time Grammy Award US musician, PJ Morton travelled to four African cities to immerse himself in the continent’s soundscapes and cultures while using those influences to write and record an album.
“I travelled to Africa to make this album and I wanted to do so over a trip of one month,” reveals Morton during a conversation via a Zoom on Tuesday this week just hours before taking to the stage in Toronto, Canada as keyboardist with the internationally renowned pop band, Maroon 5.
