“Intensely personal”
– Rolling Stone
“Restless and rowdy, and at times just pure rock ‘n’ roll fun, the set is a direct result of a few
transformative years…Solitary Tracks doesn’t just crackle, it cooks.”
– Esquire
“Solitary Tracks is a sprawling, 23-song, genre-agnostic project that finds Moore further elevating his songcraft.”
– Billboard
“Moore officially revealed his next career chapter – and it’s a rich one.”
– American Songwriter
“This fellow is building an overseas career that’s stronger than any of his peers.”
– Music Row
“The 23 songs promise to fire an arrow at the heart of his target audience, a group that’s just a little
left-of-mainstream. His refusal to adjust his aim is what’s made him so fascinating.”
– Taste of Country
“The album reflects Moore’s personal and artistic growth, showcasing a more mature and introspective side.”
– The Tennessean
“A massive set of 23 songs, vivid country imagery meets raw, roughshod vocals and gripping rock intensity,
an emotional lingua franca, which connects across continents.”
– Nashville Lifestyles
“Solitary Tracks promises to be a collection unlike anything we have seen from the
multi-platinum singer/songwriter before.”
– Country Now

| “There’s no pattern you have to follow, and sometimes you gotta gamble on yourself,” stated Moore. “You gotta be bold enough to trust your gut, and willing to roll those dice if you believe something. I’m never going to cheat by just trying to write what I think people want to hear, or hold onto a sound that worked for me. I have to constantly stretch and go where I need to go, or it’s going to be disingenuous. I’m going to always be authentic with myself, with every record, and all I ever hope is that people find a little solace. This project is a journey in itself, so I hope it helps people navigate their own life.”
Additional highlights from Solitary Tracks include the “swaggering” (Billboard) “Bad Spot,” The Clash and The Ramones inspired “Around You,” the “powerful guitar-driven anthem” (Country Now) “Live Here to Work,” the “gritty, rough, and rowdy” (Whiskey Riff) “Learning As I Go,” as well as the “heartfelt anthem” (All Country News)“Flowers in December” and the slow-burning track “Wildfire.” There are many paths to follow in an artistic career, but for Kip Moore, the choice has always been a clear “forward,” even if he has to go it alone. With Solitary Tracks, his internal compass is stronger than ever. Harboring 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’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’ll never sell his soul. And now, Solitary Tracks takes them deeper into the creative wild. Embracing his lifelong drive to break new ground, Solitary Tracks is like nothing Moore has ever done. It’s an album of intensity on all levels – vocally, lyrically, and sonically – as Moore focuses his incisive pen inward. Co-produced by Moore with Jaren Johnston and additional production by Oscar Charles and Jay 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. This spring, Moore will kick off his Solitary Tracks World Tour, which will take him across Canada, Europe, and the UK. It’ll be followed by a run of US tour dates over the summer with Billy Currington. Tickets and select VIP packages are on sale now and can be purchased on his website.
