‘CHASE’ IS AVAILABLE ON 21ST FEBRUARY
CELEBRATES FORTHCOMING RELEASE WITH SOLD-OUT HOMETOWN HEADLINE DEBUT AT RYMAN AUDITORIUM

In-demand Warner Music Nashville talent Chase Matthew is hitting the fast lane once again, as he turns the ignition on revved-up anthem ‘DRIVES MY TRUCK‘.
Having been released on Friday (17th Jan), the uptempo jam finds the real-life car enthusiast hard on the gas with a flirtatious throwback to the truck songs of the ’90s – just with extra horsepower. Amping a high-octane mix of turbo-charged swagger, heavy-duty drums, and redlined electric guitars, the rollicking track (written by Matthew, Brock Berryhill, and Taylor Phillips) speaks to losing control in all the best ways when your girl takes the wheel.

Following the CMA Awards last week, Moore unveiled his new song “Flowers in December” which was also accompanied by an official video, as well as the surprise second track “Wildfire“. Available everywhere through Virgin Music Group, “Flowers in December” is a forlorn, melancholic ballad co-written with Erich Wigdahl and co-produced by Jaren Johnston. The pair of tracks continue to tease new music on the horizon, kicked off earlier this fall with “Live Here to Work“, Moore’s first new song in nearly two years. Billboard called it “blistering” while Rolling Stone named it a Song You Need To Know. He also released “Learning As I Go“, a resilient anthem that Whiskey Riff called “gritty, rough, and rowdy” and Country Now lauded as “honest” and “powerful”. 

The acclaimed singer/songwriter will be sharing the official video for “Wildfire” today at 4pm GMT via YouTube, a raw and poignant visual to accompany the soaring, wistful tune, co-produced with Oscar Charles and co-written with Charles, Dan Couch, and Hank Born.

Moore wrapped a marathon run of tour dates last month throughout Australia and New Zealand where he performed in sold-out arenas and theaters across Christchurch, Auckland, Sydney, Newcastle, Melbourne, Brisbane, and more. He also made his highly anticipated return to South Africa, which kicked off with a performance at Loftus Stadium in Pretoria where a crowd of over 23,000 fans welcomed him back for the second year in a row. It was followed by a headline performance at Cape Town Stadium in front of 25,000 fans for the inaugural Cape Town Country Festival. Additional performances included Zac Brown Band, Darius Rucker, Brothers Osborne, and more. Moore will close out his whirlwind two-year run of The Nomad World Tour next month.
