Kip Moore's 4th Studio Album Released In May

    "Wild World" will be released on May 29th

    Multi-platinum singer/songwriter Kip Moore announced today that his highly-anticipated fourth studio album, WILD WORLD, will be available May 29th, and can be pre-ordered now.  Moore also gave his notably loyal fan-following a taste of what to expect, releasing the upcoming collection’s title track today, available to listen here
     
    Co-writing all but one of WILD WORLD’S insightful tracks, Moore navigates the search to find a place and a purpose. Throughout the 13 song collection, that search is revealed in deeply personal terms, with Moore even self-producing the set, with help from David GarciaLuke Dick and Blair Daly on respective tracks. 
     
    The weathered heartland-rock sound Moore has embraced on previous efforts gets its emotional volume pumped up, recorded live with a full band, as substance takes precedence over style and the timeless prevails over the trendy. Moore admits the results include a few quirks – but that just gives WILD WORLD the character he values so much. 
     
    “We wanted it to be more in-your-face,” he says. “More earthy, more analogue”.
     
    That straightforward honesty arrives early on the record, starting with the very first song, “Janie Blu”, about a girl who’s always been special, but often stood in her own way – a compassionate, force-of-nature plea to get your head right before it’s too late. 
     
    Likewise, the sturdy “Southpaw” stands as a grunge-rocking manifesto for the proudly out of touch, rejecting the notion of “going with the flow” and showcasing just how Moore stands apart in today’s Wild World. 
     
    Meanwhile, the calming “More Than Enough” presents a better option, blowtorch anthems like the “Fire And Flame” pour gasoline on the quest for greater meaning, and “Red White Blue Jean American Dream” flies down an empty highway of optimism.
     
    “I know it’s an unsettling time for a lot of people right now, and so my hope is that this music can bring even just one person some peace,” shares Moore“I try to make music that reaches people in a pure sense – something that’s light and easy to carry with you, but 1000 pounds of weight at the same time, and I think Wild World is just a depiction of what I see. Life is one crazy, wild ride. But it can be so simple if we look for the right things, and I think that is more important than ever right now.”

    Kip Moore has toured the world headlining his own shows, earning acclaim and a rabid fanbase as an all-in performer in each setting and most recently wrapping 40 sold-out headlining shows in The US, the UK and Canada. Praised by Noisey as "an uncompromising, genre-defying artist firing on all cylinders”Moore has very much blazed his own trail. The current CMA “International Artist Achievement Award” nominee first splashed into the mainstream with the double-platinum “Somethin’ ‘Bout a Truck” in 2012, then followed up with three more best-selling No. Ones (“Hey Pretty Girl”, “Beer Money” and “More Girls Like You”), a trio of ambitious, critically-praised albums and two gritty EPs that landed Moore on multiple “Best Of” lists. Moore is currently gearing up to hit the road this summer as a special guest on Sam Hunt’s THE SOUTHSIDE SUMMER TOUR.
