Morganway unleash their storming new album ‘Kill The Silence’
Acclaimed Americana rock band Morganway return with their most powerful and ambitious record yet, Kill The Silence’, showcased by its riveting title-track. Fresh from a relentless touring schedule that has seen them open for Skunk Anansie, Belle & Sebastian, Elles Bailey, and Scarlet Rebels across the UK and Europe, as well as lighting up major festival stages including The Long Road, Belladrum, Towersey Folk Festival, and Cropredy—the band now set their sights on their biggest-ever UK headline tour.
‘Kill The Silence’ was recorded live in just four days at Foel Studios in Wales, capturing the raw energy, grit, and passion that have made Morganway’s live shows legendary. Fuelled by ‘probably four bottles of whiskey and almost no sleep’, the album blends their signature harmonies and melodic finesse with a heavier, rock-driven edge, channelling the spirit of Woodstock while tackling the struggles of independent musicianship and celebrating life’s brightest moments.
SJ Mortimer (lead vocals): “This truly feels like a new chapter for us. We poured our souls, blood, sweat, and tears into this album. There’s magic in recording music the ‘old school’ way—plugging in together and playing live, warts and all!”
Callum Morgan (bass/vocals): “Inspired by artists like Bob Dylan and Brandi Carlile, we wanted to record as they often do—spontaneously and less rehearsed. When you’re still discovering a song, that’s when the magic happens.”
