Morgan Evans “Things That We Drink To” To Release October 12

Fresh off his first U.S. #1 single “Kiss Somebody,” Morgan Evans will continue the celebration with Things That We Drink To, his full-length debut album with Warner Music Nashville / Warner Bros. Records. Releasing October 12, the project is a musical reflection of Evans’ exciting journey since moving to Nashville from his home country of Australia.

Evans co-penned each track on THINGS THAT WE DRINK TO alongside the album’s producer, Chris DeStefano. The two played every instrument heard on the sonically diverse project, showcasing Evans’ musicianship in addition to his adept songwriting.

“My album is a collection of songs that I wrote over the last two years,” says Evans. “It’s my story. It’s leaving behind everything and everyone you know to chase down a country music dream on the other side of the world. It’s the excitement of the unknown, it’s the fun, it’s the loneliness and it’s the struggle. It’s losing someone and finding the strength to keep your head up and make them proud. It’s meeting a girl, falling hopelessly and marrying the love of your life. It’s the ‘Things That We Drink To’.”

Last week, Evans delivered “one of the most original and stirring performances” (PEOPLE.com) of the album’s title track at the 12th annual ACM Honors, in memory of his former manager Rob Potts. MusicRow praised he “stunned the crowd with his super creative, multi-textured performance” with The Tennessean noting, “The crowd leaped to its feet.”
