In this week's episode of Music of the Mountains, we feature Christopher Morse, acoustic singer-songwriting with the stylings of John Mayer and Jason Mraz!
Have you ever heard of a boarding school for musicians? Even this column’s author had no idea a school like that existed. For those who actually attended, though, it became some of their first experiences touring.
Christopher Morse attended his middle school years at the American Boychoir School in Princeton, New Jersey. Though he shifted from his classical upbringing to acoustic indie pop-folk tendencies by high school, the Boychoir is where he first honed his musical skills.
“The easiest way to describe it is, it was Hogwarts for singing,” explains Morse. “It was a boarding school where we sang three to four hours a day, having rehearsals, and then we would go on tour, have school on the bus while we were on tour, sing every night, and drive to a new city the next night.”
