KIP MOORE EMBODIES HIS MOST AUTHENTIC SOUND WITH UPCOMING THIRD STUDIO ALBUM SLOWHEART

Nashville, TN – June 21, 2017 – Multi-PLATINUM singer/songwriter Kip
Moore shared more details about his most personal body of work to date today, revealing to Rolling Stone that his upcoming third studio album on MCA Nashville SLOWHEART will be
released on Sept. 8.  Having navigated the path from the staggering
success of the release of his smash-hit debut album UP ALL NIGHT, to the
resounding critical acclaim that followed with his sophomore offering,
WILD ONES, has hit his stride with the upcoming release of SLOWHEART.
 Moore co-wrote 11 out of 13 tracks, and was the sole producer on seven
of the tracks, as well as co-producing five more on the collection that
is “between the rough edges of Americana, rock and the evocative
storytelling of country, produced to let every guitar lick ring true and
every edge and wail of Moore’s voice reverberate raw but strong” (Rolling Stone). 
He also played guitar throughout the recording, while singing the
majority of the harmonies, giving him a new found respect for the
talented background vocalists within the Nashville community and
resulting in the impactful authenticity of this record. 

As Rolling Stone aptly
describes, “The Georgia native is nothing if not steadfast: he does
what he wants, how he wants it, and doesn’t try to shuffle his emotions
under the table. He talks openly about depression and self-doubt, and,
on Slowheart, about the life of a grown, modern man, one who wants a
family sometimes but seeks a few no-strings thrills at others. He sings
about fighting for a relationship at all costs, but also knowing when to
pour the last round; and about how music is his real lover, while
everything else is just an affair.”  

With a wayfarer impulse, Moore
followed years on the road touring building one of the genre’s most
fervent followings with an extended break exploring the rest of the
world, including stops in Iceland, Hawaii, Australia, Costa Rica, Park
City and more. This time of reflection culminated in a striking sense of
clarity, showcased in Moore’s upcoming collection. With a tip of the
hat to 90’s rock and roll, the anthemic “Bittersweet Company” is
destined for a spot on the setlist of Moore’s revered live show, as well
as “Last Shot” with it’s encore-ready, emphatic chorus. Moore also
serves an unflinching wake-up call in the form of the
groove-driven track “Blonde,” while he lays bare a more vulnerable layer
in the committed ballad, “Try Again.”

“This is the record I’ve been waiting to make,” said Moore. “The one
that leaves you with a peace in your heart, knowing you did it exactly
the way you wanted to. The one that makes it okay if you fail, because
it truly came from your soul and no other place. You can’t go wrong if
you can lay your head on your pillow with no regrets.”

SLOWHEART Official Track List:

Co-written by Moore, his current Top 20 single and the lead track from
his upcoming release “More Girls Like You,” is the fastest rising single
of his career so far and is receiving praise from critics such as Entertainment Weekly declaring
he “has made a name for himself weaving vignettes of Southern,
blue-collar life and love into rollicking country anthems.” As he
“consistently serves up clever roots-rock riffs and rhythms that
separate Moore from the rock-meets-rap focus of his Nashville peers” (Associated Press),
the release of “More Girls Like You” follows the acclaim that
surrounded his sophomore album WILD ONES heralded as “an impressively
singular release from Music Row” by The Guardian.
Moore first turned heads with his debut album UP ALL NIGHT which was
certified GOLD by the RIAA and spawned three No. One hit singles
including GOLD certified “Beer Money,” PLATINUM certified “Hey
Pretty Girl,” and the DOUBLE PLATINUM breakout hit “Somethin’ ‘Bout A
Truck. Following an extended break, Moore is back out on the road
playing some of country music’s biggest festivals this year, as well as
headlining dates in U.K this fall stopping in Birmingham, UK (10/2),
Manchester, UK (10/3), Glasgow, UK (10/4) and culminating in a special
show as part of Country Music Week in London, UK at O2 Shepherd’s Bush
Empire on 10/6. Moore will also return to Ireland later this summer for
Harvest 2017, stopping in Westport, IE (8/26) and Enniskillen, IE
(8/27.) For more information and a fill list of tour dates, visit kipmoore.net.
