Morgan Orion

Morgan Orion is an Asheville-based indie folk artist who's become a cult favorite for his quirky, whimsical approach to songwriting. Known for blending ukulele-driven melodies with wry humor and theatrical flair, Orion crafts songs that feel like campfire stories told by your most eccentric friend. His recent releases like the playfully existential "Fuzzy" and melancholic yet catchy "Alone Forever" showcase his talent for wrapping life's absurdities in deceptively simple folk-pop packages. While maintaining a DIY ethos, Orion's work (including the vividly-titled *The Tunnel of Love and the Hell of Hot Licks*) often features lush arrangements that nod to both old-timey Americana and modern indie sensibilities. His live shows are celebrated as immersive experiences where earnest emotion and Vaudevillian showmanship collide.
