Up-and-coming singer/songwriter James Morrison visited the press tent at the Coachella music festival in advance of his twilight set in the Mojave Tent this evening.
A native of Warwickshire, Morrison had a hit in the United Kingdom with “You Give Me Something.”
He expects to be giving to Coachella audiences. He said we will be performing new material here.

James Morrison lounges beneath posters from past Coachella festivals in the event’s press tent. His name is on this year’s poster.
He is a fan of Stevie Wonder, particularly his albums in the 1970s such as “Talking Book” and “Songs in the Key of Life.”
He said his love of music didn’t lead him to use a career in it.
“It chose me. I got projected into the music industry pretty quickly.”
