Morgan Wallen, hailing from East Tennessee, continues to make waves in the music scene. His collaboration with Post Malone, ‘I Had Some Help,’ has topped the Billboard Hot 100 for six weeks, becoming the longest-running No. 1 of 2024. As he gears up for his headline performance at BST Hyde Park in London on 4 July, Wallen is also preparing to release his much-anticipated new single, ‘Lies Lies Lies,’ on 5th July.
The track, penned by Jessie Jo Dillon, Josh Miller, Daniel Ross, and Chris Tompkins, and produced by Joey Moi, was recorded at the historic Abbey Road Studios in London on 5 December 2023, shortly after Wallen’s sold-out performance at The O2. ‘Lies Lies Lies,’ part of Wallen’s Abbey Road Sessions digital series, was initially released on 3rd March 2024 to mark the one-year anniversary of his record-breaking third studio album, ‘One Thing At A Time.’
Wallen’s release of ‘Lies Lies Lies’ coincides with his first-ever headlining set at BST Hyde Park on 4th July. The event will feature support from Riley Green, ERNEST, Ella Langley, Alana Springsteen, Zandi Holup, and others.
Fans attending the Hyde Park show can also purchase exclusive merchandise, including a limited edition ‘Lies Lies Lies’ t-shirt, available online from 5th July.
In addition to his musical achievements, Wallen is committed to giving back. A portion of ticket sales from his live shows supports The Morgan Wallen Foundation (MWF), which aims to provide children with opportunities to engage in sports and music. To celebrate his Hyde Park debut, MWF has pledged $20,000 to support London Youth Choirs (LYC), an organisation dedicated to improving access to music for disadvantaged young people.
Wallen’s latest album, ‘One Thing At A Time,’ has recently reclaimed the top spot on Billboard’s Country Albums chart, marking 53 weeks at No. 1, the second-longest run in the chart’s history. His collaboration with Post Malone, ‘I Had Some Help,’ has also achieved remarkable success, reaching No. 1 on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart in just seven weeks, the fastest ascent since Garth Brooks’ ‘More Than a Memory’ in 2007. The track has been touted as a Song of the Summer contender by Spotify and Variety.
Morgan Wallen’s momentum shows no signs of slowing as he continues to captivate audiences with his music and live performances.
