“I think about how I used to live In this garage that I lived In for a while and how desperate I was for so many years to Have a chance to be heard,” he said. “I remember writing so much music In this place and my comfort at night and The thing that made me daydream was watching people perform InThe Royal Albert Hall and imagining myself playing In that room. That kind of thing just kept me going.”
Crooner, who recently released His fifth studio album “Damn Love” on April 28, said His latest record reflects His struggles With feeling like an outsider.
“I wanted people to feel a bit like outsiders InLife,” he tells us. “People can look at me and think, ‘Oh, he’s got everything.’ But I’ve always felt a bit like an outsider. I think it’s my introverted nature.”
“Although I HaveThe most extroverted job InThe world, but when I’m Not doing it, I go to The movies alone, I go to dinner alone, I go on trips around The world alone. I’m a very introvert,” he added.

Proving to be an introvert, Moore admits that “by The time he finishes His ‘Damn Love’ international tour, he’ll be ‘on His own for a month’.”
“I want it,” he shared. “When Life gives you a picture of how to do things, I want people to feel a sense of peace that you don’t Have to fit into that pattern, there are still ways to find love In your own Life. That’s what I experienced while making this record. There’s a lot of vulnerability and fear InThe things I write about on this record, but it’s also about finding peace.”

“I’ve already made a completely different record,” he revealed. “I think I’ll start working late summer. As for me, there Is a lot of mission work that I look forward to. At some point InThe future, I’ll probably take off to focus on that. But now I’m just very focused on making The best records and developing international tours.”
Singer Morgan Wade was of a similar opinion, who recently announced that her second studio album “Psychopath” will hit streaming platforms on August 25.
The album follows her debut album Reckless, released In 2021, Which topped Rolling Stone magazine’s Best Country Albums of The Year list.

“With Psycho, we did a really good job of taking Reckless to The next level without being so wildly different,” Wade told Page Six exclusively. “I’m excited, every song there Has its own sound and it’s completely different.”
Revealing that The album will feature 13 tracks, Wade says The record will paint a picture of her Life since The release of “Reckless”.
“[The album] goes into where I am InLife right now. Who Is so busy. It’s about growing up and getting older and starting to think, “Is it time to settle down?” I think you’ll see a lot of that on The album.”
For 28-year-old Wade, honoring The iconic stage at The Royal Albert Hall IsNo mean feat.
“I’ve seen pictures of The Royal Albert Hall, but I’ve never been here before,” she said. “It’s just beautiful, amazing. The acoustics here are great. It’s so exciting.”
“You know it’s an iconic place when everyone In America knows what you’re talking about too. The people at home know what The Royal Albert Hall Is,” added The hitmaker, Wilder Days.
The Royal Albert Hall Has hosted some of The greatest concerts InThe last 152 years.
Exactly 55 years ago, country music legends like Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins and June Carter graced The scene With Cash’s hit Country and Western Show.
Since then, some of The biggest names In Country and Americana Have followed suit, including Willie Nelson, Sheryl Crow, and Glen Campbell, to name a few.
Since then, The show Has evolved into The Highway Festival that celebrates today’s stars.
