Everyone’s favorite country rock star has come out with three new hits for all to enjoy shortly after his monumental album release of “Dangerous: The Double Album,” back in 2021.

Morgan Wallen is a 29-year-old singer and songwriter that has blown up in recent years, making his mark on The Voice back in 2014, propelling him into the world of music. Fast forward to today, Wallen has made great strides in his career after winning album of the year at the Academy of Country Music Awards on March 7 and announcing the start of his ¨The Dangerous Tour¨ that kicked off in February and ends Sept. 24 at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. Continuing his trailblazing career, Wallen has now released the trifecta of singles for his fans with special meanings for each song and release date. 

Wallen released ¨Don’t Think Jesus¨ on Good Friday back in April, which was written by Chase McGill, Jessi Alexander and Mark Holman for Wallen to bring to life. Back in October of 2021, Wallen teased the new hit for fans on social media, strumming on his guitar to the heartfelt song. This marks Wallen’s first release after his collaboration, ¨Broadway Girls¨ with Lil Durk back in December of 2021, filling fans of Wallen with excitement for more to come.

Next, Wallen released a heartfelt tribute to his mother entitled ¨Thought You Should Know¨ on May 8 in celebration of Mothers Day weekend. Wallen took to TikTok back on April 29, announcing the release of the previously teased single dedicated to his mom Lesli. The song follows the storyline of Wallen calling up his mother and updating her on all he has been experiencing lately. Co-written by Wallen, Miranda Lambert and Nicolle Gaylon, this song is sure to pull at heartstrings and appreciate the special women we have in our lives.

 

Finally, Morgan saved ¨Your Proof” for last, releasing the single on March 13, the day he turned 29. The song takes on an acoustic guitar melody packed with emotions and passion like we have seen from Wallen in the past. The lyrics depict Wallen talking about forgetting someone and of course mentioning his token lyric, whiskey. Those that love Wallen’s usual vibe will adore these new hits and be sure to play them time and time again.
