On his new single, “Grey,” Mauricio Morales incorporates his jazz influences to create an eclectic and fiery take on how heartbreak forces us into growth whether we accept it or not.

Grey” follows the story of a man reflecting on his youth and how heartbreak changed him — for better or worse. Co-written with Jonah Levine and Mark Pelli, the collaborative creative process started as a break-up song that morphed into a new perspective on letting go and growing up. A calm and collected start turns to layers of warm vocals climbing over a synthy jazz-influenced piano. Suddenly, it morphs into a cascade of instrumentation, from brass horns to percussive rhythms, and listeners feel the sense of tension and release that comes from emotional and personal growth. With a wall of sonic atmosphere built around every turn of the story, it perfectly represents Morales as a composer and artist.

“Grey” is a stunningly brilliant and beautiful musical composition. Mauricio Morales is a phenomenal musical composer who along with Jonah Levine , Mark Pelli and Josh Shpak have skillfully crafted a true work of art .
