Just as promised.
Morgan Wallen has three brand new tunes out today in the form of his One Thing At A Time – Sampler, including the already fan-favorite homage to his Tennessee Volunteers “Tennessee Fan,” as well as “One Thing At A Time” and “Days That End In Why.”
He previously noted that these three songs are just a taste of what’s to come on the new album he’s been working on, which he says has him more inspired than ever:
“The truth is – I have been writing and making so much music in my off-time because I feel as inspired as I ever have.
It feels like new songs are pouring out of me, and I love that feeling.”
Morgan released his record-smashing Dangerous double album in 2021, and just wrapped his extensive and Dangerous tour in October.
“As Promised.”
He teased “Tennessee Fan” right after his Volunteers beat Alabama earlier this season, when they broke their streak of 15 long years of losing to the Crimson Tide.
Morgan co-wrote it with Ashley Gorley, HARDY and Mark Holman, and it quickly became a favorite among fans just from the short teaser he put out, and because I love college football more than just about anything, it quickly became one of my favorite Morgan songs too:
He also released “Days That End In Why,” which is an introspective breakup song about how his life has
“been nights that start with whiskey and days that end in why” in the wake of it.
He opens by painting some beautiful imagery, describing his search for answers on his heartbreak through “24 cans” and unanswered prayers:
“Been playing 20 questions with 24 cans
24/7 till I understand
I sent a prayer up for a helping hand
But it must’ve got stopped by the ceiling fan I’m starting that
In this half full bed, looking for a reason that I ain’t found yet”
The lyrics feature some really clever wordplay, and the song was actually written by Eric Church’s kickass guitarist Driver Williams, along with John Byron and Blake Pendergrass.
“Days That End In Why”
Lastly, Morgan dropped the namesake of his upcoming 17-stadium 2023 One Night At A Time world tour “One Thing At A Time,” which he co-wrote it with Ashley Gorley, ERNEST and Ryan Vojtesak.
“One Thing At A Time”
The new tour is set to kick off overseas on March 15th, and will feature rotating openers in his good friends HARDY and Ernest, as well as Texas boy Parker McCollum and up-and-comer Bailey Zimmerman.
The verified fan presale starts next Wednesday, December 7th.
