Neal Morse (born August 2, 1960) is an American singer, musician and composer based in Nashville, Tennessee. In 1992, he formed the progressive rock band Spock’s Beard with his brother Alan and released an album which was moderately successful. In 1999, he joined Dream Theater’s co‑founder and drummer Mike Portnoy, the Flower Kings’ Roine Stolt, and Marillion’s Pete Trewavas to form the supergroup Transatlantic. In 2002, Neal Morse became a born‑again Christian, left Spock’s Beard and began a Christian rock solo career, releasing many progressive rock concept albums about his new religious faith. In the meantime, he continued to play with Transatlantic and formed three new bands with Portnoy: Yellow Matter Custard, Flying Colors, and The Neal Morse Band. Morse grew up in the San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles as one of four children. His father was a choral director. Morse started to play the piano at the age of five and began learning guitar at the age of nine. During his twenties he wrote two musicals (Hit Man and Homeland), did some session jobs, tried to get a deal as a singer‑songwriter in Los Angeles, and recorded a few country and western demos with his brother Richard. After about ten years, having played in small Californian clubs with various groups including Burlesque, Morse founded Spock’s Beard together with his brother Alan, to give voice to his great passion for progressive rock. Their first album, The Light (1995), was moderately successful.
