With\u00a0<em>Solitary Tracks<\/em>, his internal compass is stronger than ever. Harbouring an established reputation as a soulful troubadour with solid country roots and a global platform, Kip has emerged as one of only a few country artists who&#8217;s international footprint is just as deep as his stateside base, built by years of slow, painstaking effort and tireless touring, with fans latching on to a creative force of nature who&#8217;ll never sell his soul. And now,\u00a0<em>Solitary Tracks<\/em>\u00a0takes them deeper into the creative wild.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Embracing his lifelong drive to break new ground,\u00a0<em>Solitary Tracks<\/em>\u00a0is like nothing Moore has ever done. It&#8217;s an album of intensity on all levels \u2013 vocally, lyrically, and sonically \u2013 as Moore focuses his incisive pen inward. Co-produced by Moore with\u00a0Jaren Johnston\u00a0and additional production by\u00a0Oscar Charles\u00a0and\u00a0Jay Joyce, its first half marks a deep-feeling acknowledgement of his solitary place, while its second part is the start of a new phase. Taken together, they wrap a defiant sense of personal growth in a raw, roots-and-soul package. Freed up by a new, globally minded label partner in Virgin Music Group, Kip is once again in a position to trust his gut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><em><u>Solitary Tracks<\/u><\/em>\u00a0Tracklisting:<br>01) High Hopes<br>02) Solitary Tracks<br>03) Pretty Horses<br>04) Livin&#8217; Side<br>05) Around You<br>06) Half Full Cup<br>07) Bad Spot<br>08) Straight Line Boots<br>09) Rivers Don&#8217;t Run<br>10) Burn<br>11) Like Ya Stole It<br>12) Southern Son<br>13) Learning As I Go<br>14) Alley Cat<br>15) Live Here to Work<br>16) Love And War<br>17) Flowers In December<br>18) Forever is a Lie<br>19) Wildfire<br>20) Tough Enough<br>21) Good Things Never Last<br>22) Take What You Can Get<br>23) Only Me<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img src=\"https:\/\/media.muckrack.com\/pitches\/RT3a\/images\/yjo11hbxr19v-jwgvvqge.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong><em>ABOUT KIP MOORE:<\/em><\/strong><br>Hailed as &#8220;an uncompromising, genre-defying artist firing on all cylinders&#8221; (<em>Vice\/Noisey<\/em>) and &#8220;one of country&#8217;s more thoughtful artists&#8221; (<em>Billboard<\/em>), multi-platinum singer\/songwriter Kip Moore has blazed his own trail and earned his place as one of music&#8217;s most beloved artists.
