Kip Moore Kicks Off Bold New Journey With Latest Album ‘Solitary Tracks’
Kip Moore is releasing his sixth and most ambitious album to date, Solitary Tracks, on Feb. 28 via Virgin Music Group.
Solitary Tracks features 23 songs split over four sides, and is a testament to Moore’s free-spirited drive to pave his own path and explore new horizons. He shared the video today for the new song “Bad Spot,” from the album, a dreamy, piano-led confession that reveals a weathered soul finally growing up.
The album announcement arrives after months of teasing a series of new songs that provided an early glimpse at his new chapter. It kicked off with “Live Here to Work,” his first new song in nearly two years, and was followed by “Learning As I Go.” He then doubled down with the anthem “Flowers in December” paired with the slow-burning surprise second track “Wildfire.”
Co-produced by Moore with Jaren Johnston and additional production by Oscar Charles and Jay Joyce, the new album’s first half marks a deep acknowledgement of Moore’s solitary place, while its second part celebrates the start of a new phase. Together, they wrap a defiant sense of personal growth in a raw, roots-and-soul package.
“I’m never going to cheat by just trying to write what I think people want to hear, or hold onto a sound that worked for me,” states Moore. “I’m going to always be authentic with myself, with every record, and all I ever hope is that people find a little solace. This project is a journey in itself, so I hope it helps people navigate their own life. There’s no pattern you have to follow, and sometimes you gotta gamble on yourself. You gotta be bold enough to trust your gut, and willing to roll those dice if you believe in something.”
