Angeline Morrison
Angeline Morrison is a British multi-instrumentalist musician, songwriter and academic. Life
Angeline Morrison was born in Birmingham to a Jamaican mother and a father from the Outer Hebrides. She attended her first folk club at the age of 17, and became active in the Midlands music scene. In 2002 she gained a PhD from the University of Plymouth with a thesis on blankness, silence and racial binarism. That year she moved to Truro, Cornwall. Morrison is half of the duos We Are Muffy (with Nick Duffy of The Lilac Time), and Rowan: Morrison (with The Rowan Amber Mill). She also sings with freakbeat bands The Mighty Sceptres (along with Nick Radford, who has also released music and collaborated with Morrison as Frootful) and The Ambassadors of Sorrow. Morrison's self-released album The Brown Girl and Other Folk Songs was produced by the artist herself, with performances and additional mixing by Nick Duffy. Her album The Sorrow Songs (2022), produced by Eliza Carthy, tries to reinsert Black British history into the tradition of British folk music. The album's first song, 'Unknown African Boy (d.1830)' is told from the perspective of the mother of an eight-year-old West African boy, who was washed up on shore on the Isles of Scilly, when the slave ship Hope was wrecked there. Morrison performed the song on Later... with Jools Holland in 2022. Discography
