Morris, Hurd record first duet
"Maren and I met writing songs, and we've sung on each other's records and written together, but this is the first time we've gotten to do an actual duet together," said Hurd. "It feels like the timing is really perfect, and it's a full circle moment to get to make music together in this way."
"Chasing After You" was written by Brinley Addington and Jerry Flowers, and produced by Teddy Reimer and Aaron Eshuis. It follows Hurd's "EOM" EP released last year, featuring his celebrated single "Every Other Memory."
Signed to Sony Music Nashville in January 2017, Hurd will release his new single and future recordings on the Arista Nashville imprint, moving from RCA Nashville.
Morris recently released the song "Better Than We Found It," a socially conscious song.

Seeing Greg Kurstin listed as the producer on Maren Morris' "Humble Quest" album, can't help but raise a few eyebrows. His resume includes the likes of Pink and Sia, but not many country-related artists. Furthermore, it wasn't too long ago that Morris had big hit with "The Middle," a decidedly pop hit single recorded with the Russian-German producer, Zedd. This album's results are not as overtly pop as that recording, but not as country as her country hit "My Church. ...
Ryan Hurd may well end up being the biggest musical thing out of Kalamazoo, Mich. (does anyone remember The Verve Pipe?) without anybody's help. So far, he's carved out a mild hit for himself ("To a T") and secured a deal with a big label who have high hopes. Hurd's sizzle factor grew exponentially when he married country superstar Maren Morris in 2018.
The idea of this almost-an-album (seven tracks) is - mostly -- a slower take on songs that Hurd had some hand in writing. ...
