'Guiding Light' Alum Morgan Englund Launches an Indiegogo Campaign for New Song

Morgan Englund, best known as Dylan Lewis on the classic CBS soap opera Guiding Light, launched an Indiegogo campaign on May 3 in an effort to raise $10,000 to make a music video for his song "Homeward Bound (A Firefighter’s Song)." As of today, Morgan had raised $6,148 toward his goal.

Englund stepped away from acting and spent 17 years a paramedic and twelve years as a firefighter while he raised his two children as a single father. Recently, he has made the decision to end his time as paramedic and firefighter to focus on his dream of being a musician. Music is in his family as his great uncle, Jack Albertson, performed on vaudeville and is also best known as Grandpa Joe in Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1971); his mother, Academy Award-winning actress Cloris Leachman; is a concert level pianist; and his daughter Anabel Englund is singer-songwriter best known for her collaborative work with electronic music group Hot Natured.
