PJ Morton

Grammy-winning singer, songwriter and keyboardist PJ Morton brings his band to KOKO in London on 12 October 2026 to present his new album, Saturday Night / Sunday Morning. His live set traces the line that runs through his work: R&B shaped by New Orleans soul, gospel roots and a knack for melody. Expect a rhythm section with steady swing, warm organ and Rhodes, and vocals that glide from call-and-response to close harmonies. The show leans on the new record while reaching back to Gumbo, Paul, Gospel According to PJ and Watch the Sun, with arrangements that keep the dialogue between church and club in motion.

On stage, Morton lets the songs lead. He moves from upbeat grooves to quieter confessionals without breaking the flow, shares a few stories about how the tracks came together, and gives space for the keys to speak. The band balances hooks with improvisation, opens moments for the crowd to sing, and anchors everything in that distinct New Orleans pulse. A focused tour stop that puts the writing, the voice and the groove at the center at KOKO, London.
