Morgan Evans teams with Virgin Music Group

“Beer Back Home” will be released in mid-October

Virgin Music Group has partnered with country music star Morgan Evans on the next phase of his career. The first single under the new deal, “Beer Back Home,” is set to be released on all DSPs on October 10th, with a new album to follow in early 2026.

Evans, who is originally from Australia, first came on the scene with his debut, self-titled album in 2014, and over the course of several albums and EPs, has amassed more than 800 million streams so far.

“I’m stoked to partner with Virgin Music Group on this record,” Evans shares. “They’ve built a global team that gets Nashville, Europe, Australia, and they get me. The industry’s changing fast, but their model keeps artists in control, especially creatively. I couldn’t be prouder of this new music or more excited to share it with the world alongside the legends at VMG. Let’s go!”

“Beer Back Home” was recorded in Nashville and co-produced by Evens and Todd Clark.

On February 14th, Evans will play his first show back at Howlin’ Country music festival in his hometown of Newcastle, alongside Lainey Wilson. In addition to premiering other new music, Evans will give the full-band live debut of “Beer Back Home” at the show.
