Just a few weeks before he died, rock and roll singer Peter “Peetah” Anthony Morgan announced a new single from the famous band Morgan Heritage.

 

Morgan released the new song from the Grammy Award-winning Jamaican group in early February. He died on Sunday at the age of 46.

In 1994, Morgan and his four siblings started the well-known reggae band Morgan Heritage.

 

The band was influenced by the work of their father, Denroy Morgan. He helped form the New York City-based reggae band Black Eagles in the 1970s.

Morgan Heritage posted on social media that a family member had died. They asked for privacy and thanked everyone ahead of time for their love and support.

Morgan’s cause of death was not given.

In a post on X, which used to be Twitter, Jamaican Prime Minister Andrew Holness said that the news made his “heart heavy.”

He said Morgan’s death was a “colossal loss” for Jamaica and reggae music.

Morgan Heritage has been successful for decades, touring the world and putting out more than a dozen albums.

In 2016, the reggae band won a Grammy for Best Reggae Album for Strictly Roots.

After their album Arakedabra came out in 2018, the group was nominated for a second Grammy.

AllMusic.com says that Morgan Heritage’s music is a mix of roots reggae, lovers rock, soul, R&B, calypso, gospel, dub, and sometimes funk and dancehall.

One of Jamaica’s most important producers, Bobby Digitals, has worked with the band.

Don’t Haffi Drea, Down by the River, and She’s Still Loving Me are some of their biggest hits.
