More from the promoter:

Atypical Arts returns to Jacksonville with a very special “Leap Day” concert event to kick-off our 2024 season!
Morley’s music brings a Global-Americana sound that is earthy, soulful, and ethereal — in praise of passion, courage, vulnerability and love. Prepare to be inspired.”

As well, Morley and Chris (as The Bruces) produced and performed on the their debut Children’s- Family album, Story of the Sky by The Bruces & Friends (featuring many renowned guest artists for who they wrote ten of the nineteen songs). Check out her website for music, videos and more: http://www.morleymusic.org
