Kip Moore will release new single ‘Live Here to Work', his first music under a new partnership with Virgin Music Group.
His first song in almost two years, ‘Live Here to Work' reunites Moore with co-producer Jaren Johnston (Keith Urban, Chris Shiflett, Darius Rucker). It will be released on Friday 20th September 2024 (pre-save now) and fans can hear it now on TikTok.
“I’m a firm believer that this life is what you make it and is enhanced by the people you surround yourself with,” stated Moore. “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 currently on the road with his huge ‘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 U.S. this fall.
“I have been a fan of Kip’s for years now,” said Jacqueline Saturn, President, Virgin Music Group North America, and EVP of Global Artist Relations. “His music's universal themes transcend genre and appeal to a huge variety of music fans. Along with his music, his commitment to relentless touring has helped him build a powerful global fanbase. We know this next phase of his career is going to be amazing.”
Moore has spent the bulk of 2024 out on the road where he’s renowned for his signature sound and blistering live shows. He kicked off the year by joining Billy Currington as part of a limited Billy Currington & Kip Moore: Live In Concert run, which was followed by a stint out on HARDY’s QUIT!! Tour.
