Seb Morgan's family crest

Sebastian Morgan (born 27 July 1969) is an Argentine-born British singer-songwriter, filmmaker, martial arts instructor, classic vehicle restorer, and Fulbright Scholar. Based in the Lake District, England, Morgan has worked internationally in music, theatre, film, and education, with a multidisciplinary career spanning more than three decades.

Early life and education

Morgan was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, the eldest of three children to Margarita del Cármen Ozcoidi, a Spanish-Argentine anthropologist, and Patrick Malcolm Hulbert Morgan, an English writer from a long line of British Armed Forces officers related to the Duke of Norfolk. He attended St. Andrew’s Scots School in Buenos Aires and studied music, acting, and dance at several independent academies during his youth.

Performing arts career

Morgan began his career performing in musical theatre and appearing in film and television productions in Argentina. He played minor roles in films such as Highlander II: The Quickening (1991) and starred in La Pluma del Ángel, a locally produced drama.

He later joined The Walt Disney Company's Character Programme, performing across South America, and was eventually recruited by illusionist David Copperfield's touring company as a Spanish-speaking show interpreter. He spent over a decade touring internationally, supporting productions in North and South America, and Europe.

Morgan received a Fulbright Scholarship in Acting and Performing Arts and studied in New York at institutions including NYU, Circle in the Square Theatre School, HB Studio, and New Dance Group Arts Center. His training included acting, musical theatre performance, jazz dance, stage combat, and songwriting and composition.

Music

Morgan began composing music in childhood and has since written and recorded several albums and EPs. His 2023 double album Falling Then Flying featured contributions from 18 musicians and 25 children from the Stagecoach Youth Choirs in Kendal and Lancaster. He previously managed recording studios in Buenos Aires and Cumbria and contributed to the early conceptual development of Amore Infinito (2008), a Deutsche Grammophon release based on the poetry of Pope John Paul II.

Now, Morecambe, and Miss You have received recognition at various international film festivals for direction and original score.

Martial arts

Morgan began studying Shaolin and Yiquan martial arts at age 17 under Shifu Tung Kuo Tsao in Buenos Aires. He has since taught Kung Fu and Yiquan in multiple countries, including the UK, US, Spain, and Latin America, and currently operates South Lakeland Yiquan Kung Fu in Cumbria. His martial arts instruction incorporates elements of yoga, including practices learned at the Isha Foundation in Tamil Nadu, India. He has also trained with special forces off the coast of Crete and has become a professional rescue and guide diver.

Vehicle restoration

In 2010, Morgan partnered with his father-in-law Roy Jackson to establish Urchin Rigg Classic Cars in Cumbria. Specializing in classic vehicle restoration, the team completed over 25 projects, including the restoration of an SAS "Pinkie" and a Jensen Interceptor MkIII once owned by Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham. The operation ceased following Jackson’s death in 2023.

The Rock Move

In the aftermath of the 11 September 2001 attacks—during which Morgan narrowly avoided boarding a flight into New York City—he conceptualized The Rock Move, an international project aimed at fostering human awareness through music and symbolic participation in a global site of reflection. The initiative proposes using serialized CD sales to fund construction of a physical monument where each CD owner’s name would be engraved on a brick.[citation needed]

Vlogging and digital media

Morgan began vlogging in 2008, documenting his life, music, travel, and restoration work. As of 2025, he has produced and shared more than 3,000 videos online. Blue Butterfly Media, his production company, has collaborated on various social impact initiatives, including media for UK-based and international charities.

Personal life

Morgan moved to the Lake District in 2010 after marrying Catherine Wania, a psychotherapist and person-centered counsellor. They live in Cumbria with their family.
