A Flavorful Interview and Musical Journey

Recently, Morgan enjoyed a delicious mid-afternoon meal at BMG’s Nashville offices while chatting about his much-anticipated album. The atmosphere was vibrant as he delved into his journey as an artist—a journey that first began with writing catchy songs. Morgan has made quite a name for himself penning tunes for established country artists like Jason Aldean, Dustin Lynch, and Thomas Rhett. In fact, Morgan co-wrote the hit song “If I Didn’t Love You,” which bagged the 2022 ACM’s Single of the Year award!

Collaborations and Aspirations

Every artist dreams of that moment when their work shines bright, and for Morgan, the dream is unfolding beautifully. His new album features two tracks featuring the iconic Jason Aldean—one where he collaborates and another where he takes the reins as a co-writer. The synergy between them is sure to strike a chord with fans!

Amidst the excitement, Morgan has his eyes set on scoring a solo No. 1 single with “Carolina Blue.” He’s been building a solid foundation with previous hits like “Friends Like That” and “Whiskey Drink,” and it seems like the wheels are turning in his favor. The competitive nature of country music has pushed him to dig deep and define his artistry, and it’s clear that he’s got what it takes.

Life as a Songwriting Dad

Beyond the spotlight, Morgan wears many hats—as a devoted songwriter, loving father, and husband. He humorously shared that a substantial portion of his earnings goes towards buying diapers for his two little ones with his wife, Hailey. Not to mention, he’s also set his sights on a vintage truck, which is quite the fun aspiration!

Blending Influences and Personal Stories

One of the gems on “Carolina Blue” is the title track, which beautifully combines catchy melodies with current musical trends that reflect his individual style. Morgan’s songwriting talents truly shine, interweaving personal experiences with earworms that leave listeners humming long after they’re done playing the album.

In a diverse selection of songs, “How To Get Her” takes on a bluegrass-inspired vibe, while “She’s Gotta Be,” co-written with Aldean’s touring band members, features nostalgic melodies and epic choruses tailored for today’s audience.

A Focus on Quality

The mixing and mastering of the album have been a labor of love for Morgan. He worked hard to ensure “Carolina Blue” stands tall alongside works from more established artists in the industry. His efforts are palpable as he eagerly anticipates performing live for audiences and witnessing fans sing his lyrics back to him.

A Journey Fueled by Connections

One interesting tidbit about Morgan’s journey involves an Uber ride that connected him with Jason Aldean’s collaborators, propelling him into invaluable co-writing opportunities. These experiences have molded him into the artist he is today—someone who blends bluegrass roots with modern country influences seamlessly.

What Lies Ahead

As Morgan prepares for the release of “Carolina Blue,” he envisions connecting with listeners through his personal stories and relatable themes woven into each song. With all 12 tracks co-written by him, the album promises well-defined material that resonates with a broad audience.

Looking forward, Morgan has dreams of crafting a bluegrass album—an aspiration that speaks to his roots and passion for music! As he steps into this exciting new chapter, listeners can’t help but feel that he’s just getting started.
