“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. 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,” he shares as we discuss his latest two releases—songs he is very proud of.

The songs are  available everywhere through Virgin Music Group. 'Flowers in December' is a melancholic ballad co-written with Erich Wigdahl and co-produced by Jaren Johnston. Meanwhile, 'Wildfire' is more upbeat—a rich tune with burning passion. It was co-produced with Oscar Charles and co-written with Charles, Dan Couch, and Hank Born.

The songs come fresh off Moore’s victory at the 58th Annual CMA Awards, where he won the 2024 International Artist Achievement Award. Winning at the Country Music Awards capped off a busy year, during which he spent much of his time traveling. This award helps cement Kip Moore’s place as one of country music’s top global powerhouses.

Last month was particularly eventful for Moore, as he spent time in Australia and New Zealand, performing in sold-out arenas and theaters across Christchurch, Auckland, Sydney, Newcastle, Melbourne, and Brisbane. After that, he made his highly anticipated visit to South Africa. His South African tour started in Pretoria, where he performed in front of a crowd of over 23,000 people who welcomed him back for the second year in a row.

After that iconic performance in Pretoria, Kip headed to Cape Town, delivering a headline performance in front of 25,000 fans at the inaugural Cape Town Country Festival. The festival also featured performances by the Zac Brown Band, Darius Rucker, and Brothers Osborne. To wrap up his Nomad World Tour this year, Moore will perform a string of U.S. tour dates in Chicago, Minneapolis, Asbury Park, Philadelphia, NYC, and Boston.

As he continues to cement his name in the country music hall of fame, Kip Moore has been described as “an uncompromising, genre-defying artist firing on all cylinders” by Vice/Noisey. Billboard called him “one of country’s more thoughtful artists.” These words are a testament to his hard work, which started more than a decade ago in 2012. Since then, he has blazed his own trail and earned his place as one of music’s most beloved artists to date, with accolades to back it up. Since his debut in 2012, Moore has released five critically acclaimed albums and penned over a dozen chart-topping singles, including the multi-platinum hits 'Somethin’ ‘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 is far from stopping. Having performed at sold-out headline shows in stadiums, arenas, and theaters around the world, Kip Moore seems like he is only getting started.
