James Vincent McMorrow's debut album, 'Early In The Morning', will see a release on March 28 (single details TBA).
It will be released via Believe Digital in the UK and Vagrant Records (The Hold Steady, Edward Sharpe, School of Seven Bells) in the US.
The album has already reached number 1 in his native Ireland, and received extensive early plaudits elsewhere:
"Vocals, lyrics and arrangements whose restraint and subtlety are totally at odds with the profound impact and resonance of his songs" - Sunday Times Culture, Breaking Act
"Gorgeous…a similar beauty to James Blake's current hit" - NME
"Haunting, atmospheric…wintry wistfulness" - Guardian
"A fragile-sounding yet stirring introduction to a superb new talent" - Record Of The Day, Staff Picks 2010
