\nHIT \u201cMORE THAN MY HOMETOWN\u201d AND WINNING<\/h2>\n

NEW ARTIST OF THE YEAR<\/i><\/h2>\n

\u2014<\/h2>\n

\u00a0BRAND NEW \u201c7 SUMMERS\u201d SHORT FILM\u00a0OUT NOW<\/a><\/h2>\n

As announced last night via his social media, Big Loud\/Republic Records\u2019\u00a0Morgan Wallen<\/b>\u00a0will release his highly-anticipated sophomore album,\u00a0Dangerous: The Double Album<\/i>, on January 8, 2021. The vast, 30-track double album is nearly three years in the making, written largely by Wallen throughout the chapter of his career that has established him as \u201cthe fastest rising young star in country\u201d (Variety<\/i>).<\/p>\n

With the project\u2019s arsenal of writers ranging from storytelling titans Ashley Gorley, Shane McAnally, Hillary Lindsey, Rhett Akins and Lee Thomas Miller, to two of Wallen\u2019s biggest musical inspirations Eric Church and Jason Isbell, to his closest musical confidants HARDY, ERNEST and Ryan Vojtesak (aka Charlie Handsome),\u00a0Dangerous: The Double Album<\/i>\u00a0further establishes the signature sound crafted by Wallen and producer Joey Moi on his #1 PLATINUM debut,\u00a0If I Know Me<\/i>.<\/p>\n

The double shot holds both of Wallen\u2019s current Country radio singles \u2013 Top 3 \u201cMore Than My Hometown\u201d and Top 30 \u201c7 Summers\u201d \u2013 as well as his critically acclaimed cover of Isbell\u2019s \u201cCover Me Up,\u201d New Year\u2019s surprise release \u201cThis Bar,\u201d and the countrified album version of 3X PLATINUM Diplo collaboration, \u201cHeartless.\u201d<\/p>\n

“As y\u2019all may have heard, I announced a double album last night, and I couldn\u2019t be more excited about it,” shares Wallen. “The ‘double album’ idea started off as just a joke between me and my manager because we had accumulated so many songs over the past couple of years. Then quarantine hit, and we realized it might actually be possible to have enough time to make it happen. I also ended up writing quite a few more songs during the quarantine with some of my good buddies. After a few months of production and fine tuning, I am so proud of what we came up with. I know 32 (eventual) songs sounds like a lot to digest, but I truly did my best to make sure there\u2019s not a song that I would press ‘next’ on. I also wanted the songs to speak to multiple phases of life and have multiple different sounds based on my influences and based on what I enjoy. The three songs that we will put out next week will hopefully encapsulate a lot of the project for you and hold you off until January. Thank y\u2019all!!”<\/p>\n
