Today, multi-platinum singer/songwriter Kip Moore released his powerful new song “Live Here to Work,” accompanied by a gritty, grunge-tinged music video. The track, available on all major streaming platforms, marks a defiant anthem that strikes a chord with anyone who’s felt trapped by the grind of everyday life.
A Rebellious Cry
Co-produced with Jaren Johnston, “Live Here to Work” features Moore’s signature vocals over a driving guitar riff. The lyrics capture the frustration of balancing work and personal life, with Moore declaring, “My time is short and it ain’t yours / Don’t get me wrong, I don’t mind getting my hands in a little dirt / But I don’t live here to work.”
A Relatable Message
“I think it’s easy as humans to get caught up in the mundaneness of day-to-day tasks and responsibilities,” Moore explained. “Everyone’s had that feeling where they’ve hit that limit and you’re just like ‘fuck that, I have to get off this hamster wheel or my spirit’s gonna die.'” The song’s raw energy and honest lyrics are sure to resonate with listeners who have felt the same frustrations.
A New Chapter Begins
Moore’s release of “Live Here to Work” coincides with his partnership with Virgin Music Group. Excited about the new venture, Moore stated, “Their tenacity, passion, and their focus on a global plan made this feel like the next best step. We’ve been seeing a real growth internationally from touring there the past few years, and so it felt natural to go with a team that has tentacles in a lot of different territories.”
Hitting the Road
As Moore continues his Nomad World Tour, he’s set to perform in arenas and stadiums across the globe. With shows scheduled in Australia, South Africa, and the United States, fans can expect high-energy performances and unforgettable experiences.
