Morgan Wallen releases ‘Love Somebody’

The track is available now

On the heels of his third studio album One Thing At A Time attaining seven-time platinum certification by the RIAA, this year’s leading CMA Award nominee Morgan Wallen delivers the first taste of his upcoming project, releasing “Love Somebody,” available now via Big Loud/Republic Records.

“‘Love Somebody’ is a little bit of a new approach lyrically and sonically,” shares Wallen. “I wanted to try something different, with what I wanted to talk about, how I wanted it to sound, and we were inspired by Latin-leaning influences. I’m really excited about this song and pumped that it is out.”

“Love Somebody” was written by Wallen alongside John Byron, Ashley Gorley, Jacob Kasher Hindlin, Elof Loelv and Ryan Vojtesak, and was produced by Joey Moi and Charlie Handsome. Craving something different against a neon-lit backdrop, the East Tennessean singer/songwriter offers a candid glimpse at the difficulties of finding someone “Who ain’t hypnotized / By dollar signs and blindin’ lights,” as he searches for authenticity.

Riding high off the success of “I Had Some Help” with Post Malone and his latest single, “Lies, Lies, Lies,” Wallen, originally previewed “Love Somebody” on the European leg of his One Night At A Time 2024 Tour. He later announced the single’s official release at his history-making, doubleheader hometown shows at the University of Tennessee Knoxville’s Neyland Stadium, where he surpassed The Jackson 5 as the venue’s largest weekend ever, performing for 156,161 fans across two shows.

Wallen will conclude his One Night At A Time tour this weekend with two consecutive nights at Charlotte’s Bank of America Stadium October 18-19. One Night At A Time spanned 87 shows, ten countries, 51 stadium plays, as well as festivals and arenas across two years.
