Ambrosino, who discovered Morton in 2008 at the Americana Music Conference, comments: “Ken is the real deal. I knew it from the first moment I heard him. He feels it, he's lived it, and he's doing it. He is one of those special artists who, when I hear him, I don't get the feeling that he's performing. I feel like I'm witnessing it pour out of him.”

Morton is also an extremely engaging performer, nominated twice for “Best Solo Performer” by Flagpole Magazine. He has toured most parts of the U.S., opening for Edwin McCain, Dick Dale, Tommy Stinson, Sugarland, & more.
