Winner
Of The 2024 International Artist Achievement Award At The 58th Annual CMA
Awards
NASHVILLE, TN. – (22nd November,
2024) – Multi-platinum singer/songwriter Kip Moore unveiled today
his new song “Flowers in December”, which is also accompanied by an
official video, as well as a surprise second track called “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, while “Wildfire” is a soaring, rich tune that pines with
burning passion, co-produced with Oscar Charles and co-written with Charles,
Dan Couch, and Hank Born.
The
pair of new tracks arrive on the heels of The 58th Annual CMA Awards
where Moore won the 2024 International Artist Achievement Award. The
accolade capped off a busy year on the road for Moore as he continues to cement
his place as one of country music’s top global powerhouses.

“We’ve
played ‘Flowers In December’ a couple of times live and the reaction was just
so visceral we knew this had to be the next song to be released,” stated Moore. “I’ve
always been influenced by different types of music, that began when I was a
kid. This song has so many different threads of those inspirations running
through it. I’m also fortunate enough to be in a new chapter of my career, and
so with that in mind I decided to make good on releasing more and more music as
the songs are recorded, and so I’m also releasing ‘Wildfire’ today. When we
wrote and recorded this song there was no agenda in mind and all the walls came
down on trying to fit into any kind of perceived box. I hope people are able to
feel this music the way we did while making it.”
The
new pair of tracks follow the release of “Learning As I Go”,
a resilient, underdog anthem that Whiskey Riff
called “gritty, rough, and rowdy” while Country Now lauded
as “honest” and “powerful”. Moore also recently released “Live Here to Work”,
which marked his first new song to release in nearly two years. A fiery,
defiant track, Billboard called it “blistering”
while Rolling
Stone named it a “Song You Need To Know”.
Moore
wrapped a marathon run of tour dates last month throughout Australia and
New Zealand where he performed in sold-out arenas and theatres 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 Nomad World Tour this year with a string of U.S.
tour dates in Chicago, Minneapolis, Asbury Park, Philadelphia, NYC, and Boston.
Hailed
as “an uncompromising, genre-defying artist firing on all cylinders” (Vice/Noisey)
and “one of country’s more thoughtful artists” (Billboard),
multi-platinum selling singer/songwriter Kip Moore has blazed his own trail and
earned his place as one of music’s most beloved artists. Beginning with his
auspicious debut in 2012, Moore has since released five critically acclaimed
albums and penned over a dozen chart-topping singles, including the
multi-platinum hits “Something’ ‘Bout a Truck”, “Hey Pretty
Girl”, “Beer Money”, and “More Girls Like You”.
With
over 1 billion streams and 2.5 million monthly listeners, he’s performed
sold-out headline shows in stadiums, arenas, and theatres around the world. A
truly remarkable performer and “one of country music’s most tireless and
powerful live draws” (Rolling Stone), Moore has spent the bulk of 2024
out on the road where he’s renowned for his signature sound and blistering live
shows.
He
kicked off the year by joining Billy Currington as part of a limited Billy
Currington & Kip Moore: Live In Concert run, which was followed by a stint
out on HARDY’s QUIT!! Tour, in addition to his ongoing two-year headlining Nomad
World Tour.
