Diana Braithwaite and Chris Whiteley have created an album that embraces its influences and still retains its own originality. All acoustic and all their own compositions, Morning Sun is guaranteed to take you on a satisfying and enjoyable musical journey. Morning Sun is a collaboration by renowned Blues artists Diana Braithwaite and Chris Whiteley. A tribute to the classic blues sounds of the '30s and '40s, Morning Sun is a collection of original acoustic compositions that are both contemporary and traditional.

“We were inspired by such greats as Memphis Minnie, Tampa Red, Lonnie Johnson, Bessie Smith, Big Bill Broonzy and the famous “Bluebird” record sound”, singer/songwriters Braithwaite and Whiteley relate.

“We wanted to produce an album that embraces a time-honoured sound while retaining its own originality”.
