With the 2012 American Country Awards right around the corner, lists of presenters and performers are filtering in each day, and get ready, ladies: Jake Owen, Kip Moore and Rascal Flatts will take the stage live from Las Vegas to perform during the annual awards show.
Kip Moore is on one heck of a ride to country superstar status. Not only does he have a critically-acclaimed debut album on the shelves, as well as a new music video and a No. 1 hit song for his latest single, ‘Somethin’ ‘Bout a Truck,’ but he also recently just found out that the song has been certified gold for sales exceeding 500,000 digital downloads.
Kip Moore‘s career continues to move in the right direction. The singer finds himself sitting atop the country singles chart this week with his very first career No. 1 hit, ‘Somethin’ ‘Bout a Truck.’ Moore leaked the exciting news to his fans on Sunday afternoon through his Twitter page. “Truck just went number 1 and I can’t express my gratitude through a tweet to everyone who’s supported me … no words,” he wrote. “Thanks to all.”
Kip Moore has a lot going on lately. For starters, his debut album, ‘Up All Night,’ is finally available! And fans of Moore will be excited to learn that his new video for ‘Hey Pretty Girl’ is available for their viewing pleasure, as well.
Kip Moore‘s first gold single almost never happened. The singer — whose debut album ‘Up All Night’ is in stores April 24 — explains that he and songwriter Dan Couch were finished writing for the day, but pulled out the guitars again to write ‘Somethin’ ‘Bout a Truck.’ Hear him tell the whole entertaining story in the video below, which is brought to you exclusively by Taste of Country.
Singer-songwriter Kip Moore and CMT have just unveiled the second episode of a new web series about his journey to the spotlight. In the webisode, Kip discusses what he feels are the most crucial components of songwriting. "To write songs, you have to have inspiration," says Kip. "And the only way you can get inspiration is by going out and experiencing life."
