After traveling the world as a successful solo artist and keyboa rdist for pop powerhouse Maroon 5\, GRAMMY(R) Award- and Dove(R) Award-win ning singer\, songwriter\, producer\, and multi-instrumentalist PJ Mortong ained a new perspective on his old stomping grounds that would inform his 2017 solo offering and debut for his own Morton Records\, the aptly titled Gumbo."In 2013\, Maroon 5 did Jazz &\; Heritage Festival\, and it was the first time I ever looked at New Orleans with different eyes\," he admi ts. "I wasn't with my family. I was at a totally different place in my lif e. Like I'd never been here\, I saw the charm of why people love this town . At that point\, I had been all over the world and so many places. I real ly started to appreciate it. It brought me back to the beginning. I rememb ered dreaming of the GRAMMYs(R) and being on Saturday Night Live. I'd actu ally accomplished those goals since I left. I wanted to tap into that feel ing again. That planted the seed of\, 'Maybe I could move back here.'"By t he time he moved back in 2016\, Morton had built an unbelievable career.
