Morgxn To Make Lollapalooza Debut, Reveals Live Version of CARRY THE WEIGHT  Image

Following the release of his debut album vital HERE (via wxnderlost/Hollywood Records), LA-based artist morgxn is set to make his Lollapalooza debut this weekend. First, opening for Carly Rae Jepsen at Friday's sold-out, official Lollapalooza after show, followed by his main performance Saturday on the BMI stage and a stripped down set at the Bud Light Dive Bar. His single "carry the weight" was the soundtrack to HBO's chill-inducing "Share The Love" PRIDE campaign HERE and added to SiriusXM's Alt Nation. Now, on the eve of Lollapalooza, morgxn reveals a live, stripped down version of "carry the weight", shot at Clubhouse Austin HERE and his recentBaeble Music NEXT session "Armed with just a piano, he let his voice shine, switching between powerhouse vocals and delicate vibrato" is HERE.

Working with producer Ryan Marrone (M83, Nicki Minaj,) morgxn's debut album vital features his standout song "home" (over 10m), a Robert Smith-approved cover of The Cure's "boys don't cry," and his previously revealed songs "bruised", "xx" and "me without you." Later in Fall, morgxn will head out on a 22-date tour with the rock trioDreamers after sharing the road with Phoebe Ryan, Skylar Grey, miike snow and X Ambassadors.
