The wait is finally over, Cool To Be Conscious Music Group has officially released the April tour dates and locations for the Morgan Heritage “Strictly Roots” 2015 World Tour. Fans in the United States can boast as being the first of many to witness the group, and experience their new album live in concert as they launch their “Strictly Roots” world tour.

“We always look forward to performing for our fans and touring is the ultimate performing experience to us. Simply because we get to perform new material along with the catalog for a different audience every night. All while augmenting the set night in and night out to fit a particular audience. These adjustments we make on the fly really optimize our live show because the changes that occur in our live show on tour come out of nowhere and most of all when we least expect it.” – Morgan Heritage

Albeit more dates to be announced for May, it has been confirmed that Morgan Heritage will perform at “Best Of The Best” Concert Memorial Weekend in Miami, and the Palm Beach Jerk Festival in Florida before heading to Europe. A complete listing of April’s schedule and other tour dates can be found on the Morgan Heritage official website (TOUR DATES)

Despite the temperamental weather, the anticipated return of Morgan Heritage at the Jamaica Jazz and Blues Festival was by all accounts a huge success. Music fans of all walks of life gathered to witness the Royal family of Reggae for their renowned riveting performances.

No sooner had the siblings stepped on stage than the weather started to dim and a light rain fell upon the festival, but the fans were not moved by the slight downpour as they danced heavily and sang along to the group’s soul-stirring songs such as Don’t Haffi Dread and Down By The River. Unfortunately to the dismay of the crowd, Morgan Heritage’s set was abruptly ended as the rain heightened.

Humbled and honored to share the same stage as Mariah Carey on their beloved island, Morgan Heritage mood was far from dampened by the weather. Speaking of the night, Mojo Morgan stated “Anytime you see that people are enjoying what you do regardless of the forces of nature, it tells you that you’re doing something right. We are grateful to be blessed with some of the best fans in the world and their commitment to live Reggae music was on full display.” Gramps Morgan chimed in “When the rain came down we saw it as a blessing despite we had such a show planned put the Jazz and Blues audience so we were cool in mind body soul and spirit we look forward to performing on jazz and blues again in the near future very near future hint hint”.
