Above: Morgan & the Organ Donors, guitars at the ready.
Olympia's Morgan & the Organ Donors are known for their trashy garage rock'n'roll, ashtrays full of lipstick stained cigarette butts and flower enshrouded M.O.D.s outfits, both on stage and off. Unlike many of their garage contemporaries who often go directly for the jugular, Morgan & the Organ Donors excel at high-lonesome guitar ballads that wrench the heart and leave tear stains on the pillow. A swamp pop twist with a Salish Sea turn. The debut Morgan & the Organ Donors album, M.O.D.s [PRNL046/KLP285] has both sides of the matter well covered, you be dancing and crying at the same time.
Check into it when Morgan & the Organ Donors play the Northern Sky festival at Oyster Bay, outside of Olympia, Washington, September 6 and 7. Also on the bill: Mount Eerie, Ragana, The Moving Pictures, Winston Hightower, Mushroom Shelter, Thrones, Ange Duval, Trust Fall, Owl & The Pussycat, Ed Glover, double mirror, FAMILIORS, Riley Kendig. Tickets for the two day event HERE.
Morgan & the Organ Donors, M.O.D.s [PRNL046/KLP285] LP is available now from The K Mail Order Dept.
