Morgan Heritage reggae band lead singer Peter Morgan is dead. A statement by the family of Peter announced his sudden passing on February 25, 2024.
“It is out of sincere love that we share that our beloved husband, father, son, and brother and lead singer of Morgan Heritage Peter Anthony Morgan has ascended today. Jah comes and saves us from ourselves because love is the only way.” The statement by the family read in part.
The family asked the world for prayers and privacy during this difficult time.
“Our family thanks you in advance for your overwhelming love and support, and we ask for your continued prayers as we go through this process. We also ask that you please respect our privacy during this time of healing. Thank you!” they added.
The reggae group is composed of the trinity, Peetah Morgan, Gramps Morgan, and Mojo Morgan who are all the children of the late reggae artist Ras Denroy Morgan.
Last year April, the Grammy award-winning Reggae band Morgan Heritage dropped a new album ‘The Homeland”.
The ‘Homeland’ album has features from East Africa and across the world. From the East, ‘The Homeland’ features Rnb King Otile Brown, and Uganda’s Eddy Kenzo.
This was the group’s first album since the passing of Denroy Morgan in 2022.
This also marked a new era for Morgan Heritage, as they expanded their global reach from the Caribbean to the African Continent and beyond.
This album was a project of rebirth for the Morgan brothers, built upon a lineage that has lasted decades and one that will continue to forge forward.
