Grammy Award Winning Artist PJ Morton On Broken Record

We’re sharing an episode from our friends over at Broken Record featuring one of our past guest on The Tight Rope, Grammy-award winning artist and Maroon 5 keyboardist PJ Morton.    On Broken Record, acclaimed producer Rick Rubin, bestselling author Malcom Gladwell, producer Justin Richmond, and former New York Times editor Bruce Headlam talk with the musicians you love about their lives, inspiration, and craft.    In honor of Black Music Month this June, we’re sharing Bruce Headlam’s interview with Grammy-award winning artist and Maroon 5 keyboardist PJ Morton. PJ talks to Bruce Headlam about what it was like growing up as a preacher’s son and how his relationship with gospel music has impacted the way he makes music. He also talks about being a recovering workaholic, and his friendship with the great Stevie Wonder.    You can hear more from Broken Record, from our friends at Pushkin Industries, at https://podcasts.pushkin.fm/brbmm?sid=pjrope.
