It follows the huge global success of James\u2019s previous two albums which, together, have sold more than 4.5 million copies worldwide. His 2006 debut album \u201cUndiscovered\u201d topped the UK album chart whilst the 2008 follow-up album \u201cSongs For You, Truths For Me\u201d included \u201cBroken Strings\u201d, the collaboration with Nelly Furtado which sold in excess of 1.5 million copies.<br \/>\n\u201cThe Awakening\u201d also includes an amazing collaboration, this time with Jessie J on the track \u201cUp\u201d. This, and one other track, was produced by Mark Taylor. All other tracks were produced by Bernard Butler.<\/p>\n<p>James Morrison said; \u201cWorking with Bernard Butler on this album has brought a whole new dimension to the songs. For me this album combines influences stemming from my deep love for classic soul \u2013 Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Otis Redding \u2013  with a sound that is contemporary. Making the album coincided with some very big changes in my life and I think it\u2019s very evident from the music that this is the album I not only wanted to make but that I actually had to make right now\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>For more see: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jamesmorrisonmusic.com\">www.jamesmorrisonmusic.com<\/a> \/ <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mcd.ie\">www.mcd.ie<\/a> \/ <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ticketmaster.ie\">www.ticketmaster.ie<\/a><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UK singer-songwriter superstar James Morrison has just announced a return to Belfast with a date at The Ulster Hall, Belfast on Saturday 28 January. \u00a0\u00a0Tickets priced from \u00a335 inclusive of booking fee go-sale Friday October 7th from Ticketmaster outlets nationwide and www.ticketmaster.ie.
