Morgan Wallen releases new song and launches music festival | Music City Minute

Oct 21, 2024, 3:15 PM

I imagine Morgan Wallen is waking up this week feeling pretty good. He’s been busy with fundraising and food collection efforts for hurricane relief. On Friday, October 18, Wallen released his latest heartbreak song, “Love Somebody.” And, looking onto the future, the “Whiskey Glasses” singer is curating a fan experience like nothing he has done before. Wallen is launching a three-day music fest called ‘Sand In My Boots Festival.’ The multi-genre event will be held on the beaches of Gulf Shores, Alabama, on May 16, 17 and 18. As per the press release, all of the performers and experiences were hand-picked by Wallen himself. Fans can register for the mailing list at sandinmybootsfest.com for the latest information.
I’m Sheena, and that’s your Music City Minute.
