Van Sessions - Morgan Thomas

Kicking off March's #VanSessions, Ogden indie-folk singer songwriter Morgan Thomas joined us in the TanVan for a 4-song acoustic set.

Morgan also talks with us about collaborating locally as a musician, the process of making his debut album "Impressions," and why disingenuous songs don't work. 

In addition to Morgan's solo work, he is also a member of The Highway Thieves who are scheduled to make their appearance during May's #VanSessions.
