Morgan Wallen was in the news all this week, but not for the reasons you might think after his new album dropped Tuesday, “I’m the Problem.” This new work builds on the enormous success of his past successful albums. First, it cements his position as a true country music industry outlaw. As always, the album features introspective, confessional lyrics and Wallen’s trademark Southern swagger. With infectious, radio-friendly melodies, it gets toes tapping and heads bobbing – pleasing established fans and fresh ears at the same time.
And that’s why I’m the Problem comes at a perfect moment, coinciding with an extremely active summer for Wallen. He’ll be celebrating the album’s release performances at the upcoming Sand in My Boots Music Festival. This cool event is happening this weekend in his home state of Alabama. The festival is even titled after one of his breakout hits. It’s sure to be an electrifying jumpstart to what’s quickly turning into an artistically busy summer ahead.
The jubilation doesn’t stop when the festival ends. Wallen’s “I’m the Problem” stadium tour is scheduled to kick off in late June—starting in Houston. The tour will take him to major cities across North America, including Miami, Cleveland, Boston, the Bay Area, and even Toronto. Fans can expect an electrifying, high-energy live performance as Wallen performs all the songs from his highly-anticipated new album as well as fan favorites.
