Jess Morgan is a songwriter’s songwriter. Inspired by storytelling songwriters like Nancy Griffith, the playfulness of Devon Sproule and upfront British voices like Billy Bragg, expect a tumbler of unfancified roots music – with heart, with passion, with gusto. Over the past few years Jess has been making a noise in the UK and further afield with a string of albums comprised of acutely observed, beautifully delivered country-folk ballads; song about travel, about people, about history, about love, about whatever the song needs. Jess arrives at HTH with her newly formed Trio on the road – Jess will be backed up by Norwich Based players Noel Dashwood on Dobro and Jose McGill (frontman of festival super-group The Vagaband) playing Bass. Expect luscious harmonies in the mix as the three-piece outfit lifts Jess’s spirited and imaginitave narrative songs to a new level.
