The Ed Sullivan Theater is chilly. Cold enough, it seems, to merit donning a winter hat and overcoat. That's the word from ever proliffic vlog meister and burgeoning homegrown pop star Matt Morris, who celebrated the release of his new disc, When Everything Breaks Open, by making his nationally televised debut on Letterman last week.

From the looks of it, things were notably warmer on the West Coast on the set of Ellen -- at least in terms of the reception he received. The show's namesake, who gushed about him recently on twitter, introduced him as "The amazing Matt Morris."
