Product Description Morgan Christopher Geer, who performs under the moniker Drunken Prayer, was born a melancholy boy to a New Orleans folk singer and a California mushroom farmer. A tall man with dark, heartbreaker looks, he has a compelling stage presence. His entertaining wit and charismatic delivery à la Warren Zevon come easy, in a swagger of whispers, shouts and sneers. He's a showman - ''a barking ringleader with chops between Tom Waits and the Butthole Surfers' Gibby Haynes'' (Willamette Week, Portland, OR).Drunken Prayer's third release on Portland-based Fluff and Gravy Records finds Geer taking things into his own hands. While 2012's critically acclaimed Into The Missionfield was a densely layered studio undertaking, featuring strings, horns, and several marquee players (including members of The Breeders, M Ward, and Beck), House of Morgan was self-recorded, largely in his bedroom with nearly all of the instruments being played by Geer. Though the record is, by design, a sharp contrast to previous efforts, this is undoubtedly a Drunken Prayer record. Geer's trademark vocals, guitar playing and lyrics are the thread that links these records together. Review The tone - dark, but not without humor - is closer to the amorphous pop songwriting of Warren Zevon, Harry Nilsson and, yes, Tom Waits. --Willamette Week, Portland, OROne part the Band, one part Tonight's The Night and several parts sinner's remorse...Bad Seeds-in-New Orleans noir --Blurt MagazineEvery artist should sound so coherent when in the midst of such intoxicating revelry. --No Depression
