Gramps Morgan Delivers Heartfelt Message in Wash the Tears - Acoustic single
GRAMMY Award-winning reggae musician, Gramps Morgan recently released a heartfelt acoustic version of his song Wash The Tears. Wash The Tears was originally released as the first song on Morgan’s 2011 album, 2 Sides of My Heart – Vol. 1. The acoustic version was released on March 19 2021 and showcases Morgan’s amazing voice and beautiful acoustic guitar accompaniment. The song honors the memory of Morgan’s mother.
Gramps Morgan is a member of Morgan Heritage, which won the 2016 GRAMMY Award for Best Reggae Album for its 2015 album, Strictly Roots.
According to his Facebook page, Morgan said, “My mother lost her battle with cancer in 1988. In 1999 my sister was reminiscing her memory while we were on tour. Her emotions inspired the lyrics and melody for ‘Wash The Tears’. Another 11 years later the song was released worldwide. It has changed my life forever in more ways than one and, will always hold a special place in my heart. Today, another 11 years later I’ve released an acoustic version of the song. The message in the lyrics still ring true after all of these years. The world is still in pain but together ‘We shall be alright’. This version is my gift to all of you that have supported me and my career for over a decade.”
He added, “We’re also excited to announce that my next single "A Woman Like You" will be released on April 9th. Available to pre-save now. It is a song dedicated to all of the women in the world including my mother.”
What a special message. Thanks, Gramps! We cannot wait to hear your new song in a few weeks!
