Kevin Morby

On his eighth album, his first since 2023’s ‘More Photographs,’ Kevin Morby returns from somewhere far. “Little Wide Open” is a road record across 13 tracks: tangled highways, small towns, roadside crosses, and rock-and-roll romance. From the engine-rumble of opener ‘Badlands’ to the open-armed homecoming of closer ‘Field Guide For The Butterflies,’ Morby writes with weary-eyed honesty.

Kevin Morby announces Little Wide Open, out May 15th via Dead Oceans, with lead single Javelin featuring Amelia Meath. The accompanying video stars Morby and comedian Caleb Hearon on an ATV through Missouri backroads, capturing the restless motion at the album’s heart. Produced by Aaron Dessner, the album completes a trilogy exploring middle America with Morby’s most personal songwriting yet.

With ‘This Is a Photograph’, Kevin Morby finds the passion and emotion that make us living and breathing people, tingeing that with realities that humanise us all.

Kevin Morby shares the video for “This Is A Photograph”, the title track of his new album. Inspired by a box of photographs, what Sally Mann called an instantaneous memento mori…an idea for a new album was born.
