KIP MOORE HEADLINES SOLD-OUT SATURDAY NIGHT AT
WINDY CITY SMOKEOUT FESTIVAL
|
Nashville,
TN – July 17, 2017 – Multi-PLATINUM singer/songwriter Kip Moore upheld
his reputation as “one of country music’s most impressive headline acts”
(Sounds Like Nashville) this past weekend, hosting the
first sold-out Saturday night (7/15) crowd at Windy City Smokeout in
Chicago, IL. Moore, who closed out the evening with an unforgettable
set, is currently gearing up for the release of his upcoming third
studio album SLOWHEART, available Sept. 8, warming up as he plays to
“venues packed with diehard fans from Atlantic City to Australia who
hang on every note and word” (Rolling Stone).
Co-written
by Moore, his current single moving up the Top 15 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 across the U.S and Canada this
summer, 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
