Moore debuts new single on Fallon

Monday, March 18, 2013 – Kip Moore will perform his brand new single Hey Pretty Girl on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon tonight.

Moore's visit will mark the TV debut for the song. The song follows two number one hits from his debut album "Up All Night" (Somethin' 'But a Truck and Beer Money) and is his fasting rising single to date already in the Top 25. The show is also exclusively premiering the music video for the song.

Later this week, Moore will play to sold-out crowds at Webster Hall in New York on Thurs., March 21, the University of Rhode Island on Friday and Boston on Saturday where his show at House Of Blues blew through over 2000 tickets in 20 minutes.

Moore has played six sold-out shows since the beginning of the year including a record-breaking stop at the Intersection in Grand Rapids, Mich. and has upcoming sell outs in Denver, Salt Lake City, Los Angeles, San Diego, Boise, Idaho and is the first country artist to ever sell-out The Knitting Factory in Reno, Nev. In between his own headlining dates, Moore is opening for Brantley Gilbert this spring and will join Toby Keith on his summer tour.

This EP-length project presents Moore in a quieter setting than usual. That distinctive voice is unavoidable, though, whether revved up or tamped down. The song that stands out most is "It Ain't California," which is introduced with a beautifully twangy electric guitar riff. »»»

If you're one of those people who read CD inserts before listening to the music, Kip Moore starts out with one at least one strike against him on his third album. In the two pages of acknowledgements and thank yous (two pages!) there's this mixed metaphor on thank you number one, which goes out to Jesus: "You continually pull me from the sinking sand. . . I'm out of the woods because of your love." Um, not a lot of sand in the woods, Kip. Thankfully, things get better as »»»
