Morgan Wade Tickets

Morgan Wade was feeling the urge to simplify. The Virginia-born singer-songwriter was on a roll, having exploded onto the scene with her debut album ‘Reckless’ and nabbing nominations from the Academy of Country Music and the Americana Music Association as her song ‘Wilder Days’ became a hit. At the same time, she was reaching a point of exhaustion from nonstop touring and having to deal with a barrage of intense media scrutiny. She wondered if it was all worth it. 

“I had all this stuff coming up, and it was such a weird, dark time that I was going through,” says Wade. “Then I sat down with a guitar and started writing songs. They were just coming to me left and right.”

This bountiful period of creation is captured on ‘Obsessed’, Wade’s third full-length album and the follow-up to ‘Psychopath’, which arrived in August 2023. Produced by Wade’s touring guitarist Clint Wells with every song penned by Wade, the 14-track project pares things back to the essence of who she is as a musician, storyteller, and human. It’s Wade at her rawest and most vulnerable, the way she started out, and a convincing statement that she’s one of country music’s most distinctive talents.
