Morgan Evans’ Debut Album To Bow In October

Morgan Evans’ debut album Things That We Drink To, is set for release Oct. 12, and pre-order for the project begins today. Evans co-penned every track on the album alongside producer Chris DeStefano, and the two also played every instrument on the sonically diverse project.

“My album is a collection of songs that I wrote over the last two years,” says Evans. “It’s my story. It’s leaving behind everything and everyone you know to chase down a country music dream on the other side of the world. It’s the excitement of the unknown, it’s the fun, it’s the loneliness and it’s the struggle. It’s losing someone and finding the strength to keep your head up and make them proud. It’s meeting a girl, falling hopelessly and marrying the love of your life. It’s the ‘Things That We Drink To’.”

The project has already produced a No. 1 hit with the first single, the buoyant “Kiss Somebody,” which Evans co-wrote with DeStefano and Josh Osborne. Fans will instantly receive that song and four others with a pre-order of the album, including  “American” (Evans’ ode to the U.S. and the girl that makes it feel like home), love song “I Do,” the live-in-the-moment anthem “Young Again,” and his new single, “Day Drunk,” which claimed the No. 1 spot on Australia’s Country Airplay chart for eight consecutive weeks.
