FAST-RISING STAR TO HIT THE STAGE ON RASCAL FLATTS' SUMMER PLAYLIST TOUR; MAJOR FESTIVAL DATES ON TAP 

 

 TITLE TRACK "THINGS THAT WE DRINK TO" GETS NEW TWIST WITH PIANO + VIOLIN VERSION, OUT NOW

 

ustralian-born Warner Music Nashville / Warner Bros. Records artist MORGAN EVANS will make an anticipated return Down Under in October for a string of shows on his upcoming WORLD TOUR. With headline dates set for Australia and New Zealand, these career-milestone performances mark Evans’ biggest shows to-date in his home country where tickets will go on-sale Monday (5/13) at 12:00pm local time. Evans will jet across the globe this fall for the recently announced European leg of his WORLD TOUR beginning September 3, with additional shows to be announced soon.

 

Before the international trek begins, Evans will join Rascal Flatts’ SUMMER PLAYLIST TOUR kicking off May 23. The chart-topping performer will bring the party to major festivals all summer long with his catchy songs and “phenomenal solo set designed to dispatch any misconception that a singer needs background musicians to get an audience on their feet and dancing” (Rolling Stone). Fans have a chance to witness his undeniable loop-pedal proficiency at stops including the Carolina Country Music Festival, Country LakeShake, Faster Horses and more.

Evans is currently climbing the U.S. Country charts with “Day Drunk” – his “bright as sunshine” (MusicRow) follow-up to GOLD-certified #1 hit “Kiss Somebody.” “Day Drunk” spent 25 consecutive weeks at #1 on Country radio in Australia and 2 weeks at #1 on Pop radio, topping the TMN Hot 100 airplay chart. Adding to the global impact, the track recently took home the title of Country Work of the Year at the 2019 APRA Music Awards (Australia’s version of PRO awards), after being awarded Single of the Year at Australia’s Golden Guitar Awards. Evans recently used the single in “Day Drunk on Tequila,” his latest musical mash-up featuring label-mate Dan + Shay’s smash “Tequila.” Rolling Stone praises its “spine-tingling three-part harmonies” while The Boot applauds his use of “studio trickery and lyrical ingenuity.” Watch “Day Drunk on Tequila” HERE.

 

Evans has released a new rendition of “Things That We Drink To,” the title track for his debut U.S. album, out now. Accompanied only by piano and violin, the emotional, scaled-down performance highlights the song’s powerful lyrics, penned as a tribute to his late manager Rob Potts. Watch “Things That We Drink To” (Piano + Violin Version) HERE.

 

Chronicling his two-year journey since moving to America from Australia, THINGS THAT WE DRINK TO features 11 tracks co-penned by Evans, who also plays instruments heard on every song. The album put him on the map as one of the genre’s most promising new talents. Dubbed “the Nashville Sensation” by PEOPLE, who also named him to their elite “Ones To Watch” list, Evans also claimed a place on emerging artist lists by BillboardPandoraSiriusXMRolling StoneThe Tennessean and more.
