A three year old with an Afro puffball hairstyle that discovers the power and peace that music can provide, Lea Morris’ origins are in the baptist church of Baltimore. She often draws comparisons to Tracy Chapman and Joni Mitchell. It’s no wonder, with her warm vocals, insightful lyrics and familiar melodies. However, as Lea’s compositions expand to include looped harmonies, vocal percussion and other elements, it’s clear that her SoulFolk style is unique. Today, she resides in Germany and travels the world sharing songs and experiences to lift hearts and connect communities. She released her newest album, Ordinary Magic, in September 2024.
