It will be a fantastic treat for all attendees of that magic night to be able to listen to the passionate voice of Jayden Morris live and in-person. Like Josh Groban, this singer`s voice sticks in your head. The ballads, the melodies, the pure heart and soul Jayden Morris puts into his words and performances lifts " the listener up and transports them into a fantastical world that doesn`t exist "except, perhaps, in Heaven above. . On March 15, 2011, Jayden Morris delivered his first unforgettable album to the masses titled, Beyond, which was extraordinary! And now, this writer is bringing to you an even better - if possible - experience. Today, Jayden Morris has answered your questions. With each and every word, readers and fans will be able to get to know this amazing artist who is guaranteed to be around for a very long time to entice, amaze, and entertain audiences across the globe So, without further adieu, Jayden Morris speaks to his fans! I know you were lucky enough to have an early upbringing in the world of music. Can you tell readers a little about your grandmother and mother, and how they were involved in music? I can just let you know that my grandmother played violin in a big orchestra in the north of Holland. My mother studied piano at the conservatorium in Tilburg, as well as giving lessons over many years. She also did some performances with ballet, of course with the piano. Is there a large music industry in Holland? There is a big music industry, BUT it`s mostly in the Dutch language. Therefore, it is difficult to get a big percentage of English language fans. But we do have some great artists who are also known in the USA like the band, Waylon, and Ilse de Lange. Waylon became contracted with Motown! I know you`ve done your early work in male-modeling. When was it that you really wanted to pursue a career in music? Very early on, actually; over twenty years ago, but it wasn`t my time then J. Three years ago I decided to follow my dream "my passion. The last three years have been very difficult, in both the private and business realms, but I just wanted to go for it. And I am starting to realize that this has been the right choice. I know you will be involved in the fantastic one-night-only event that honors and celebrates the life of Michael Jackson. Is he one of your particular idols? Are there any other music legends, or present-day performers that you listen to a great deal? I think MJ has been an inspiration for everyone! I saw him once in Amsterdam, and it was just fantastic!!! George Michael, Josh Groban, Michael Buble, are my direct inspirations, as well as Adele, and more. I don`t have any one particular person. Can you tell fans a little bit about your CD, Beyond? How it came to be? How it was released, etc.? We started last year in September. I chose the name, BEYOND because it was a new moment in my life - I wanted to go beyond - head toward a new future. If you look at the pictures of my album you will see a bridge I am passing over, and a road in Australia where there is no end "hence, BEYOND. The release, itself, was in Rotterdam attended by some well-known people in Holland as well as the press. I performed five songs off my album, which was released on the 15th of March. The song, Philadelphia, from that CD is simply a stunning piece of work. Do you write your own lyrics? Actually, this song is a cover, but nobody knows of this song, as we made a new arrangement so that you can not recognize it anymore. With my next album, I want to write at least two songs of my own. Where do you get your inspiration from? My inspiration "for example, when I am running at the beach, or when I am listening to very relaxing music, or when I am skiing, which I love to do!!!! So the inspiration can come from anywhere when I feel comfortable. Will you be touring the U.S. anytime soon? YES!! Of course! But it all depends on what will happen with ATUP (All Tied Up Productions). They are planning all of the events, and I hope to be in the U.S. very soon! You have an angelic voice - a lot like the wonderful Josh Groban. I would assume others have compared the two of you? Are you going to stay in that particular genre of music and not perhaps turn to, say rock and roll? Thank you J Although our tones/voices are not alike, the way Josh Groban sings is what I like very much!! If you listen to my other songs, you will see that we do possess different styles. When I perform, I sing a lot of songs by Michael Buble, Old American Songbook. " We ask all of our performers in the music industry what they think of programs such as American Idol to launch a career, what is your opinion? And, does Holland have its own Idol? I have a feeling which is twofold: It is a great way to get into the picture to become a rising star, BUT, if you don`t make it, then you have to sign a contract, and you`re not able to do anything for a very long time. What I want to say is "participants should consider and think very deeply if this is all worth it. They can make you and break you "but some of the singers are already superstars!!! In Holland we used to have Idol, but now we have The Voice, " which the USA is doing as well right now, and it`s a big success! Can you tell readers what will be coming up for you, and Beyond? And if there is another CD in the works? There will be another CD, I hope, next year. The most important thing is that I will have a lot of performances. At this particular moment, I can not make a living of music only, but I know that will change. _____ We always end our interviews with an ode to James Lipton and his questions from Inside the Actor`s Studio,` which is very popular in America for performers and artists of all types. Other than your own profession, what profession would you like to try? I love to work with kids - people in general - so to do something in the sports field with kids is something I would love to try. What profession would you never like to try? Hmmm "difficult. Well, I always get mad when the police give me a ticket for wrong parking L So maybe that job. What is your favorite word? Not one but two "Carpe Diem What is your least favorite word? It depends. When people start to use the word "BUT` too much, it means that most of the time they are negative and can never see the light at the end of the tunnel. When you arrive at the Pearly Gates, what would you like God to say? Wow!! Is this really you??? Please come in and SING J There you go fans. And, I have to say, as someone who has been smart enough to jump on board " with Jayden Morris at the beginning - I can guarantee that this is one super-talented artist who will be making a huge career out of his music very, very soon. And I will have the ability to look back and say, I knew him when! " Until Next Time, Everybody!
