As of now, there is no official announcement from Netflix regarding Van Morrison being appointed as the Queen’s ‘artist in residence’. However, Van Morrison has been previously honored by the British monarchy. In 2015, he was awarded a knighthood in the Queen’s Birthday Honours list for his services to the music industry and tourism in Northern Ireland. This recognition allows him to be addressed as ‘Sir George’, his birth name being George Ivan Morrison.
Throughout his illustrious career, Sir Van Morrison has received numerous accolades, including six Grammy Awards and a Brit Award for Outstanding Contribution to Music. His unique blend of soul, blues, jazz, and country music has left an indelible mark on the music industry.
