The James Henry Morgan Gang hails from the 7Cities that make up Coastal Virginia with a little sprinkle of Northeast North Carolina thrown in.
 Their sonic territory tickles Blues, R&B, hints of Jazz and other Psychedelic Investigations of the 4th Kind that land on a solid Rock and Roll platform.
Heading up the crew is James (Jay) Morgan on lead guitar and vocals. Jessie Huard and Gillian Young cover the backing vocals and have been known to  step out front— when the spirit moves ‘em—to assist with pushing the larger flavor palette wherever it needs to go.   Bassist Paul Jarman handles the robust and bouncing low end.  On keys, John (Bubba) Wilkins brings his years of playing on the road with the likes of Bonnie Raitt & other legends to tie those melodies together with a neatness and sass that are unmatched.   With Andy Rexroat on drums and Eric Talley on hand percussion, the rhythm is birthed & the beat laid.
 This train has left the station!

I’m Danial.
Music, for me, is not a dream — it’s a weapon.
A weapon to challenge silence, to awaken hearts, and to remind the world of the truths it often forgets.

My songs are not just melodies; they are messages carved in sound.
Messages about identity, struggle, spirit, and the unseen beauty within the storm.
I’m not here to be famous.
I’m here to echo something greater than myself.

Every chord I strike is a rebellion.
Every lyric I write is a mirror.
And every voice that listens… becomes part of the movement.

This isn’t entertainment.
This is purpose.

2024 Greater Arizona Country Music Hall Of Fame Inductee Mike Breen began his musical career in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania playing guitar and singing bluegrass music.  After a few years at Penn State University studying creative writing and playing with the "Magnificent Truckstop Band" Mike moved to Phoenix, Arizona and immediately got a gig in a folk duo called 'Smith and Breen' performing at the Salt Cellar restaurant.  A year later Mike began a three year stint as a "Barnstormer" at The Windmill Dinner Theater.  During this time Mike met many musicians and songwriters including Darcie Deaville with whom he collaborated on stage and in the studio and co-wrote her Kerrville winning song 'Icy Barrel of a Loaded Gun.’

Mike released 2 Cds in the nineties -  "No Excuses" and "Past Lives" to critical acclaim (favorable reviews in "Dirty Linen," "Sing Out" and several other national publications) and started to have other artists record his songs which eventually led to a passion for recording.  Also, during this period of time Mike got the call to perform with the Red River Opry Band in Tempe, AZ and in 1996 got his first b bender telecaster which would eventually lead him to write and record a CD called "Mescal Mary and Other B Bender Guitar Instrumentals" which received notable reviews in many national publications including "20th Century Guitar." 

Mike's freelancing work on stage and in the studio has given him the opportunity to work with several country stars that would come through town including Jessi Colter (with whom he recorded tracks for her "Out Of The Ashes" CD produced by Don Was), John McKuen of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Doug Haywood of Jackson Browne's band, Hank Thompson, Colin Raye, Skip Ewing and opening for such artists as Roy Clarke, Jo Dee Messina, Confederate Railroad and Eddie Rabbitt as well as well as releasing more of his own work including "Apartment Living" and "All Night Long" which include some of Mike's most compelling songs.
Over the years Mike has gained an enthusiastic following for his "story songs" and has been a finalist in many songwriter competitions including 
The Tucson Folk Festival, The Sierra Songwriters Festival, The KRCL Songwriting Competition and The Lake County Folk Festival Songwriting Competition.
