Kip Moore Set To Damn The Man On New Single “Live Here To Work”

Along with a grunge-tinged rock n’ roll music video, multi-platinum selling singer/songwriter Kip Moore unveiled his brand-new song ‘Live Here to Work’. Available everywhere through Virgin Music Group, “Live Here to Work” finds Moore reuniting with co-producer Jared Johnston for a defiant, guitar-drenched anthem striking a rebellious chord between work/life balance as he contends “My time is short and it ain’t yours / Don’t get me wrong, I don’t mind getting my hands in a little dirt / But I don’t live here to work.”

“I think it’s easy as humans to get caught up in the mundaneness of daily tasks and responsibilities,” said Moore.

“Everyone has experienced that sensation whereby they have reached that limit and you are like ‘fuck that, I have to get off this hamster wheel or my spirit’s gonna die.'” People lost it when we first sang it live at a show few weeks ago. Seeing how others adopt it—or reject it—will be interesting.

Along with announcing he has teamed with Virgin Music Group for the next stage of his career, Moore hinted to the forthcoming premiere of “Live Here to Work” last week. Speaking with billboard, he said, “their tenacity, passion, and global plan focus made this feel like the next best step.” From visiting there the previous few years, we have seen a true global expansion; so, it felt natural to go with a team that has tentacles in many various countries, especially the ones I have been most often.

Moore is in the middle of his marathon Nomad World Tour, which starts in arenas and stadiums this month with a 14-show run in Australia followed by a return to South Africa where he performed before audiences of over 40,000 last year. Last year, Moore also had a string of performances in the United States. Currently on sale are tickets and VIP packages; you may buy HERE.

Multi-platinum selling singer/songwriter Kip Moore has paved his own path and established himself as one of music’s most beloved performers, hailed as “an uncompromising, genre-defying artist firing on all cylinders” (vice/noisey) and “one of country’s most thoughtful artists” (billboard). Starting with his brilliant 2012 debut, Moore has since put out five critically praised albums and written more than a dozen chart-topping singles, including the multi-platinum hits “Something’s Bout a Truck,” “Hey Pretty Girl,” “Beer Money,” and “More Girls Like You.” Leading sold-out headline events in stadiums all around the world including Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, The U.K., Europe, and the United States, with over 1 billion streams and 2.5 million monthly listeners, he has earned a nomination for CMA’s International Artist Achievement Award. Holler called his most recent album Damn Love “the best album of Kip Moore’s career,” and Billboard, Music Row, and American Songwriter also gave it great marks. Moore also performed the lead single and title song of the album on Good Morning America. Moore, who “one of country music’s most tireless and powerful live draws” (Rolling Stone), has spent much of 2024 on the road where he is well-known for his distinctive sound and explosive live performances. Starting the year with Billy Currington as part of a limited Billy Currington & Kip Moore: Live In Concert tour, he then spent some time out on HARDY’s QUIT!! Journey.
