Alwyn Morrison

Alwyn Morrison has skyrocketed onto the list of rising talents to watch in 2025. His recent string of hot releases has already amassed over 1 million YouTube views, 200,000 Spotify streams, and earned airplay on more than 30 U.S. college radio stations and 40 international stations — all within just a few months. A former music journalist turned artist, New York City-based Alwyn Morrison has spent years shaping stories — both his own and others’. From interviewing Grammy Award winners like Esperanza Spalding and Jack Antonoff to global pop icons such as Rita Ora and the Scissor Sisters, Morrison brings a storyteller’s insight to his music. The result: an original sound that fuses rock’s raw intensity with pop’s infectious melodies.

"Chained" racked up over 100,000 streams across platforms in its first two weeks (SongStats) — a powerful debut for an independent artist.

Produced by Michael Carey (Gwen Stefani, Escape the Fate, Pablo Alborán, Robbie Williams), "Chained" delivers Morrison’s signature blend of anthemic pop-rock and raw emotional intensity.

The song is about staying close to someone who’s falling apart — even when it begins to pull you under too. At its heart, it’s about love at its most selfless, and most painful. Co-written with longtime collaborator Michael Ales and recorded in Los Angeles with Carey, the track peels back the layers of emotional entanglement that come with loving someone battling depression, capturing the quiet tension between personal struggle and universal experience.
