    About the Workshop

    Lea Morris

    Singers and song-leaders of choirs, choruses, and other groups are invited to join renowned singer-songwriter-songleader Lea Morris in an energy-packed afternoon of singing and learning. Lea will share and teach a number of her songs and discuss with the group how they might be used in a variety of settings.

    Lea Morris' sound, which often draws comparisons to Tracy Chapman and Joni Mitchell, is a unique SoulFolk style that features insightful lyrics and multi-layered chants, combined with looped harmonies and vocal percussions. She has shared the stage with Odetta and Mavis Staples. Originally from the Washington DC area, Lea is also returning to her roots by composing multi-layered chants and grounding a community singing experience in Braunschweig, Germany, where she currently resides.

    Lea frequently works with congregations, community choirs, and school groups to share inspiring and joyful music that is easy to learn and fun to sing. During her upcoming trip to the U.S., Lea Morris will make a stop in Indianapolis and will be participating in several events over the weekend as a guest of Indianapolis Women's Chorus.
