The full-length version of the song was performed on AGT in September
Stoney Creek Records recording artist Drake Milligan is giving fans what they crave, releasing the full-length, original version of his current single following a captivating return to America’s Got Talent. The newly recorded “I Got A Problem (Full Length)” is available now at digital outlets.
With a rich, warm vocal and a sound tipping its hat to neon-lit ‘90s romance, the track remains a heartfelt tribute to an all-consuming love – but now comes with an added layer of refinement.
Featuring a new piano intro to showcase the effortless ease of Milligan’s beyond-his-years baritone, “I Got A Problem (Full Length)” captures the track just like the rising star performed it as an America’s Got Talent guest in September – returning to the scene of his national-TV breakout last season.
The cool-and-collected performance was so riveting, that it prompted host (and early believer) Simon Cowell to invite Milligan to be a part of an upcoming AGT spin-off show – and led fans to demand it be released.
Meanwhile, Milligan’s global profile continues its skyrocketing growth, with successes piling up across North America, Europe and beyond.
Mixing traditional country twang and a dose of right-now swagger, Milligan and multi-platinum duo The Reklaws are currently rising up the Canadian charts with their inside the Top 10 collab single, “Honky Tonkin’ About,” earning acclaim from outlets like Billboard and even a performance at the 2023 Canadian Country Music Awards last month.
The creative partners also traveled to Romania to film a time-warp music video with a star-studded cast, enlisting Christopher McDonald (Happy Gilmore), Robert Knepper (Prison Break) and Mary-Louise Parker (Weeds) for a clip that premiered at the crossroads of the world on October 19th, taking over CMT/Paramount’s famous Times Square billboards in New York City.
Meanwhile, Milligan has already performed over 100 US shows this year and will keep the throttle pinned as the calendar flips, opening for fellow Texan Cody Johnson in 2024, along with an extensive headlining tour of the US.
As for the rest of this year, he’ll first head to Canada for four snowy shows in December, and will then close out the year with a hometown bang, set to rock the World’s Largest Honky Tonk – Billy Bob’s Fort Worth – on New Year’s Eve, marking the third time this year he has sold out the venue.
From there, he’ll fly to Europe for six shows including stops in Germany, The Netherlands, Switzerland, Belgium, and the UK, and Milligan already has two international festivals on tap for 2024. He’s booked for big-time appearances in Australia at CMC Rocks QLD 2024 in March and Norway at Den Forvitnelege Countryfestival 2024 in July.
It all follows the acclaimed release of Milligan’s 2022 album debut, Dallas/FortWorth, and looking ahead, fans can expect all new music in 2024.
