The country star teases first new song in nearly two years
Kip Moore has announced a new partnership with Virgin Music Group for the next phase of his career. Moore also teased his first new song in almost two years and the first music under the new deal entitled “Live Here to Work,” which reunites him with co-producer Jaren Johnston (Keith Urban, Chris Shiflett, Darius Rucker). “Live Here to Work” will be released on Friday, September 20th, and can be heard early on TikTok now.
“I’m a firm believer that this life is what you make it and is enhanced by the people you surround yourself with,” Moore states. “I see this next chapter of my career as an opportunity to keep building this thing brick by brick. I was making this record independently when I began having the initial conversations with Virgin and other record labels. It was ultimately the tangible passion from Virgin Music Group that made me want to team up and see where we could take this next chapter. There is a trust and a freedom in what I do and I can feel that from this team. The fans are going to be getting more music from me than ever before. The first track from this project is a song called ‘Live Here To Work.’ It pushes the envelope a bit, but we wanted to come out swinging.”
Moore is in the midst of his marathon Nomad World Tour which resumes in arenas and stadiums later this month with a 14-show run in Australia, includes a return to South Africa where he performed to crowds of over 40,000 fans last year, and culminates with a string of dates in the US this fall.
