In a world where music often conforms to industry norms, there are a few artists who stand tall, marching to the beat of their own drum. One such trailblazer is the incomparable Morgan Wade, who has once again shattered expectations with the release of her highly anticipated sophomore album, “Psychopath.” The album is now available for your listening pleasure, inviting you to immerse yourself in Wade’s world of unfiltered emotion and unabashed authenticity.
“The record is out. My art was released into the world, and I can finally breathe,” Wade joyfully exclaimed via her Instagram account. “The response has been so great already… I’m very grateful today.” And grateful she should be, as “Psychopath” is already making waves across the music scene, drawing praise from fans and critics alike.
In the lead-up to the album’s release, Wade has been garnering attention from some of the most prestigious outlets in the industry. The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, People Magazine, Forbes, and more have all turned their spotlight onto this rising star. The Los Angeles Times aptly noted that “Psychopath’s alpha attitude and potent vulnerability make for one of current country music’s more bracing dispatches,” while No Depression hailed Wade’s ability to craft “accessible narratives while reveling in textbook hooks.” However, it’s her soul-stirring voice that weaves these narratives together, leaving an indelible mark on the listener’s heart.
“Psychopath,” produced under the watchful eye of Sadler Vaden, showcases Wade’s artistic evolution as she joins forces with esteemed co-writers Julia Michaels, Ashley Monroe, Angaleena Presley, and more. The album boasts an impressive lineup of tracks, including five solo compositions that expose the depths of Wade’s introspection. The poignant closer, “27 Club,” has been aptly described by The New York Times as “a cutting song about dodging the worst fate, and still being unsure of what comes next.” It’s a track that encapsulates the essence of Wade’s storytelling – raw, poignant, and utterly relatable.
As she continues to captivate audiences with her music, Wade has maintained an unwavering commitment to her craft. Even as “Psychopath” takes flight, she’s been unwavering in her relentless touring. This weekend, her magnetic stage presence will grace Starkville, Mississippi, Maryville, Tennessee, and Saint Louis, Missouri. But Wade’s ambitions stretch far beyond American borders; she’s set to embark on a European tour spanning ten shows across six countries, including her inaugural performances in Paris and Copenhagen.
Hailing from Virginia, Morgan Wade has transcended the ordinary to become a compelling voice in country music. With a vocal prowess that strikes a chord deep within the soul and a knack for crafting unfiltered tales of life’s most significant moments, Wade has emerged as a true luminary in the industry. Her debut album, “Reckless,” released in 2021, soared to the top of Rolling Stone’s Best Country Albums of the year list. It unveiled the poignant lead single “Wilder Days,” a song that catapulted her into the echelons of elite songwriters.
