There is no time like this present moment to practice mental and emotional autonomy. That doesn’t mean checking out of the current situation. It means making sure that we are equipped to respond with authenticity and love. An important step in that choice is listening more to our inner compass than the madness screaming all around us. This message will be rich with interactive music and opportunities for meditation.
Lea Morris (she/her)
Lea Morris’ sound 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. Born in Washington DC to a father who toured the world playing trumpet in a funk band and a mother who dreamed of opera, Lea began to sing in the Baptist church as soon as she could speak. In high school, she started teaching herself to play acoustic guitar by writing songs. Then, she embarked on an exchange year in Halle, Germany, where the artist dabbled in classical, jazz and pop. Lea is returning to her roots by composing multi-layered chants and grounding a community singing experience in Braunschweig, Germany, where she currently resides.
