Grammy-winning singer-songwriter, keyboardist for the mega pop band Maroon 5, and founder of Morton Records, PJ Morton details the inspiring journey that led to his unique sound and urges readers to follow their own dreams.

The son of pastors and gospel artists, PJ Morton grew up singing gospel music in church. As he was drawn to R&B and pop, PJ  experimented in combining genres to create his own sound that record labels struggled to categorize. Despite the pressure to conform, he defied expectations and risked launching his own label, Morton Records, leading to twenty Grammy nominations and awards.

PJ Morton is the rare artist who has straddled the tensions of life, whether in music or faith expressions, or in racial and cultural identities, while staying true to his New Orleans and Christian roots. Saturday Night, Sunday Morning captures his powerful journey of combining his two worlds, showing readers how to overcome obstacles as they seek their own dreams.

Genre:

  • “PJ Morton is connected to gospel the way Aretha Franklin was connected to gospel.”

  • “Genre -melding artist, dedicated family man, and forward -thinking businessperson . . . PJ Morton combined his passion and understanding of R & B and gospel into a sound all his own. If you love music like I do, you’ll love Saturday Night, Sunday Morning.”
    Joanna "JoJo" Levesque
  • “Saturday Night, Sunday Morning is not just a memoir but a testament to the enduring power of faith, love, and the unbreakable spirit of an artist whose voice transcends boundaries. PJ’s journey is an inspiration—an invitation to embrace one’s gifts fully and use them to illuminate the world.”
    Bishop Joseph Warren Walker III
