WHAT IT IS: Born in 1999 but with a clear affinity for the ’60s, L.A. native Henry Morris is making waves with his debut album, Jawbreaker. Channeling a vintage vibe reminiscent of Chris Isaak and Lana Del Rey, Morris weaves tales of tumultuous young love with a lyrical edge. On Jawbreaker, he delivers a mix of highs and lows, capturing the essence of classic storytelling where winners falter, losers triumph and the morally ambiguous come to life. As Morris puts it, “You’ll walk the line, you’ll sing the blues, and you’ll be six feet deep when the album’s through.”
