On the heels of winning his sixth GRAMMY® Award, the SRG-ILS Group proudly welcomes PJ Morton’s own Morton Records to its label roster.

PJ Morton is a soul singer, songwriter, performer and producer based in New Orleans. He is a 6x GRAMMY-winner and 22x GRAMMY nominee who has earned numerous nominations for BET, Soul Train and NAACP Image Awards, in addition to selling out countless shows at historic venues like the Apollo Theater and others around the world.

On top of running Morton Records and serving as Maroon 5’s full- time keyboardist for the past 15 years, he has collaborated with Stevie Wonder, Erykah Badu, Jon Batiste, Nas, Lil Wayne, JoJo, Jill Scott and many others, and is the first Black composer to write an original song for a Disney attraction, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, now open at both Disney World and Disneyland.

Shares Claude Villani, CEO and Founder of The SRG-ILS Group:

“PJ Morton is a generational talent and everyone here at SRG/ILS is extremely excited to be part of his upcoming projects.”

Says PJ Morton:

“I am excited about this new partnership. When Walter Millsap initially brought the idea to me, I knew it would be a perfect fit for what Morton Records, and I were trying to do to take it to the next level.”

Under Morton Records’ partnership with the SRG/ILS Group, PJ Morton will start introducing songs from his next album later this year.
