Currently Opening for ERNEST, Riley Green, Jameson Rodgers

As announced during his Grand Ole Opry performance on Saturday (9/9), prolific songwriter and seasoned performer John Morgan – best known for writing country superstar Jason Aldean’s history-making and award-winning #1 “If I Didn’t Love You” with Carrie Underwood – will release his six-song debut EP Remember Us? on Friday, October 6. Pre-save/pre-add HERE.
Praised by People as “a solo artist intriguing enough to watch,” the debut mixes John’s signature “sad boy country” heartbreakers with lively up-tempo barn burners, effortlessly flowing between romantic relatability and nostalgia to crank-it-to-10 singalongs. “Standing apart from the rest of the Country crowd as he brings a more traditional Country flair to the Pop-Country sounds of today’s genre” (Songwriter Universe). John co-wrote each song and enlisted his mentor Jason Aldean and Aldean’s bandmates Kurt Allison and Tully Kennedy to help produce the project’s heart-stirring title track “Remember Us” along with “Ain’t Been There Yet” and the previously released party-starter “Friends Like That,” which has earned over 12.5 million on-demand streams to date.
Declared by Country Swag as “one of Morgan’s best to date,” the EP also includes the just-released “Cold Summer in San Antone” that depicts the isolation and coldness a broken heart can inflict, even during the most brutally hot season in Texas. Likewise, the anguished “It Ain’t the Leavin’” dials in on the turmoiled chaos felt after goodbye, while the fun-loving, up-tempo anthem “Won’t Be As Good” admits life isn’t as worthwhile without that certain someone in it.
With emotive and dynamic lyrics that bring his innate storytelling prowess to the forefront, Remember Us? truly embodies why John Morgan is a multi #1 hit songwriter and artist to watch. “Oozing with validity, Morgan’s subtle twang is undeniably fresh and is a swift and welcomed return to the traditional sounds that he grew up on, but that fans also crave” (All Country News).
Having just made his Grand Ole Opry debut, John is out on the road with ERNEST, Riley Green, Jameson Rodgers and Conner Smith and has been hitting renowned music festivals such as Headwaters Country Jam, Utah’s Country Fan Fest, WE Fest, Voices of America Country Music Festival, Tidalwave Music Festival and more.
