In reflecting on the inspiration behind "Drowning," Morrison shares, "At the time I penned this song, the world was steeped in unease, fear, and discontent – marked by riots, a global pandemic, and a struggling economy. It seemed as if the collective sentiment mirrored my own sense of anxiety and dissatisfaction. This track emerged as a creative outlet to articulate those emotions and connect with a broader audience."


THE MORRISON PROJECT was produced by Billy Morrison, mixed by Barry Pointer, and mastered by Dave Donnelly. The songs on the album were recorded in Los Angeles at various studios and were written by Billy Morrison in collaboration with his guests.

This collaboration marks the establishment of TLG | ZOID as the new Rock arm within The Label Group's family of labels.

The album aims to showcase Morrison's songwriting prowess and creative vision, offering a multi-genre musical experience.


In addition to this musical endeavor, TLG has formed a strategic alliance with dCommunity to pioneer a fan-centric and artist-focused community within the metaverse, leveraging blockchain technology. This innovative approach aims to enhance fan engagement and interaction in the Web 3 community, positioning "The Morrison Project" as a showcase for these new technologies.


The British guitarist, singer, and songwriter is primarily known as Billy Idol’s rhythm guitar player for the past 15 years alongside lead guitarist Steve Stevens, has expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership with TLG, highlighting the importance of a record deal that respects the artist's creative freedom and ensures widespread distribution across all platforms.
