Justin Moore readies 'Stray Dog' for May release

Justin Moore's sixth studio album ‘Stray Dog' is slated for May 5 via The Valory Music Co. It was recorded at the historic Castle Recording Studios in Franklin, Tennessee. Moore and the band captured the majority of ‘Stray Dog’ live over the course of just a few days. 

A maverick by nature, the singer says, "A long time ago I decided I wasn’t going to play games or pursue things that didn’t make me happy. Perhaps that’s made me a bit of an outsider in this industry, but it’s also what allows me to go to bed each night feeling good about what I’m doing.”

Among the songs is “With a Woman You Love” (his latest No.1 single) and “You, Me, And Whiskey” (a duet with Priscillia Block). Of the title track “Stray Dogs,” Moore says, “It’s a really personal, autobiographical song. I’ve never just gone along with the crowd. I’ve always tried to follow my heart and let the chips fall where they may, and I’m really proud of that.”

Born and raised in Poyen, Arkansas, Moore landed his first Country No.1 with “Small Town USA,” off his 2009 self-titled debut. It went Platinum, as did its 2011 follow-up, ‘Outlaws Like Me,’ which yielded yet another No. 1 single with “If Heaven Wasn’t So Far Away.” In the years that followed, Moore would go on to land nine more No. 1 singles, a New Artist of the Year trophy at the ACM Awards, more than a billion streams across platforms and record with Miranda Lambert and Thomas Rhett.
