   About MORLEY
Morley is the 2009 voice for Ralph Lauren's fragrance commercial "My Romance"

"Morley creates modern soul music - cerebral lyrics, sultry grooves and vocal sophistication." -Elle


"This jazz minded pop chanteuse, soul sister, cosmopolitan home girl from Jamaica Queens embodies modern-day NY femininity in all its multicultural finess." -New York Times

"Somewhere between Sade and Portishead, there's Morley." -Time Magazine

"Morley's brooding; harmonically interesting low-key vibe is one that combines Nina Simone's coy wisdom with Joan Armatrading's vulnerable expressions of emotion." -Philadelphia Inquirer

"The music of Morley... love, kindness and hope at every bend." -Daniel Lanois

"Universal and spiritual conscious music for the 21st century." -Raul Midon

"Morley is one of the outstanding voices of her generation, as a singer, songwriter and bandleader she's in a class of her own, transcends all categories and is making a major contribution to contemporary music." -David Amram

"Morley expertly combines an earthiness, sensuality, etherealness, intelligence and social consciousness, and melds it into sophisticated, globally-minded pop that would easily fit into your playlist amidst Sade, Joni Mitchell, Amadou & Mariam, Annie Lennox and Marvin Gaye" -Bill Bragin

"With no religious connotation, there's a mix of the spiritual and the sensual in my music", muses Morley, "I join them together because I believe them to be from the same source: love".

for morley - teacher, wise person, singer/songwriter from new york


morley elevates a stand of pines
roots to the the highest tips
and the people who sit beneath
lifted by sheer love
roots tremble
hearts open

fearless and free of self
radiant clear eyes
morley sings to reach in
under the gnarled shudder
and the cresting fear
to find the ease and glide
the quiet place bowered
by deeper colored flowers
by words and tunes
meant to uncover the heat
in the soil
meant to say the truth
of the trees and people
gathered in concert
