Son of Pioneering Comedic Actor Howard Morris Releases Modern Rock Album 'Picture An Accident'

HONOLULU, Sept. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- Musician David Morris, working under the artist name Picture An Accident, has released his debut modern rock album entitled Picture An Accident.  The album is dedicated to his late father, actor/director Howard Morris, who achieved fame in the 1950s co-starring with Carl Reiner and Imogene Coca on the legendary Sid Caesar's "Your Show of Shows," and was later known as the famous rock-throwing hillbilly Ernest T. Bass from "The Andy Griffith Show."  Morris also appeared in other TV shows, various cartoons, and multiple films, including several Mel Brooks productions.  He was also the voice of the famous Qantas koala bear for 25 years.

While growing up, David Morris was involved with dozens of his father's productions.  David used these experiences to develop Picture An Accident.

David says, "I lost my father in 2005, and I really miss him.  His life was outstanding, and that inspired me to make this record."

David set out to create an experience capable of guiding listeners through a maze of intricately composed twists and turns.  David notes, "A mix of traditional and non-traditional instrumentation was used to create musical tension, while also providing an emotional lift.  Internet radio listeners are responding well towards it."

David decided to make the album on his own.  He wrote, produced and recorded the entire album in seven months, including playing all instruments, and singing lead and supporting vocals.  David notes, "We live in a new era that allows serious artists a shot at developing and marketing themselves.  Even though I recently launched this project, I already have hundreds of fans.  I love that I'm able to produce everything myself, using an Apple Mac."

David says he's influenced by bands like Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, Rush, VAST, U2, Linkin Park, Muse and Foo Fighters.

In addition to creating music, David has directed dozens of productions, including national TV spots and marketing/educational videos for major film studios and Fortune 500 companies.  David shot the album cover and created a 30 second TV spot for MTV, VH1 and Bravo.  The spot can be seen here: TV SPOT
