Dee-Morris and Fusion
Making
the Band
When
I think of Fusion I think of a blend; a good
blend where every ingredient adds to the balance
and harmony of the whole. One New York based
group has brought the balance together to form
the real FUSION.
A member of the group, the
multi-talented
Dee-Morris (singer/songwriter
with FUSION) sat with Strive to talk about real
striving: his past being homeless, down and out yet
never stopping. In this interview DeeMo gives us
practical ways to make money while developing an
artistic career.
A little info about the
group:
FUSION is set to
make their lasting mark on the soul singing world
showcasing their stylish expressions throughout the
music industry. Based in New York City, this group of
soul singers consists of four talented guys of
different ethnic backgrounds from all over the world.
Two of many credits include performances live on the
FUSE NETWORK, as well as on the red carpet at the
BILLBOARD AWARDS........
Members
include:
MITCH, AC, ATLAS
DEE-MORRIS,
an African-American singer/songwriter/musician
originally from the Washington DC area, currently
resides in Jamaica, Queens. As a full-time actor and
model, Dee-Morris (aka "DeeMo") has been in countless
televison shows, films, commercials and magazines.
After co-hosting the VH1 awards and headlining the
"American Pride East Coast Regional Tour", MTV came
calling for another special television spot for him.
Soon thereafter, Dee-Morris went on to compete and
win the first ever MTV Spring Break "Fear Factor".
Musically, DeeMo has been inspired by the likes of
Donnie Hathaway, Boyz II Men and Brian McKnight,
leading him to sing in many state, county and gospel
choirs while growing up. He has a passion for
performing regardless of the stage and as a
determined young individual, he has a relentless
vision of success that he contributes to
FUSION.................
Continuing
to hone their skills with internationally known vocal
teacher Craig Derry, FUSION displays an enormous
amount of potential as they prepare to embark on the
music industry. The well-balanced cultural blend of
FUSION enables them to appeal to the domestic market
as well as the international market which they
anticipate will catapult them into the industry
forefront. Already with a national and international
buzz, the guys of FUSION understand that being
unparalleled along with their determination will set
the stage for their success.
