Nashville, TN (March 17, 2010) – Singer/songwriter, Tyrus Morgan, has teamed with Murfreesboro, TN based company, Just Love Coffee Roasters to present Silence Speaks, a special blend of Fair Trade coffee inspired by the song of the same name from Morgan’s new album Sycamore. The coffee can be purchased through various online outlets and Morgan’s concerts.
“The song, ‘Silence Speaks,’ represents one’s opportunity to speak for what is silent or to give a voice to the voiceless,” explains Morgan. “This is a way to bring awareness to whatever a person is passionate about… poverty, orphans, the homeless, etc… When we are still and give silence a chance, often times it’s the loudest message we ever hear.”
Morgan continues, “This partnership with Just Love Coffee Roasters really makes a lot of sense, as we both share a heart for doing something beyond ourselves… especially in the way of orphan advocacy and poverty. Also, the coffee is outstanding!”
The Silence Speaks Blend is a medium roast of beans from Ethiopia and Sumatra with a smooth, even taste.
In addition to the coffee blend, the pair is teaming together for the Just Love Coffee “Acoustica Tour.” Set to launch this Spring, the tour will present intimate acoustic shows with a focus on the concept of doing things outside of our own small worlds. Morgan and Two Empty Chairs frontman, Cliff Preston, will provide music for the evening, which will also include discussion and interaction, all over a cup of coffee.
“We are excited about our new partnership with Tyrus Morgan,” explains Rob Webb Founder/Owner of the coffee company. “It was a perfect fit for Just Love Coffee Roasters since Tyrus has the same passion for the cause of the orphan as we do personally and as a company. We look forward to collectively speaking out with Tyrus for those that have no voice.”
Silence Speaks Blend can be purchased at www.justlovecoffee.com, www.tyrusmorgan.com and live shows. Current information about the “Acoustica Tour” can be found on these sites as well. Dates for the tour are being booked now for Spring and Summer throughout the Southeast and Midwest.
