Kip Moore rolled onto the country music scene in 2012 with the release of his debut album, Up All Night, which featured hits including “Somethin’ Bout a Truck” and “Hey Pretty Girl.” He solidified his place in the Nashville music scene with his sophomore album, 2015’s Wild Ones, which landed him a coveted opening slot for Miranda Lambert. The "Little Red Wagon" singer's ongoing Keeper of the Flame tour runs until September 10. Georgia native Moore reveals which rock tracks inspire him and get his blood pumping, exclusively for Us Weekly!
"Whole Lotta Love” by Led Zeppelin: "No matter how many times I hear this song, I'm still in awe of Robert Plant's voice. This song is a classic party song. The opening chord gets my adrenaline pumping."
"Shot at the Night” by The Killers: "I’ve always been a big fan of theirs, and I love the throwback vibe of this song. It's got almost an '80s pop-rock feel. All the intricacies and different layers to the track make it really interesting too."
"I'm on Fire” by Bruce Springsteen: "It's hard to pick a favorite Springsteen track, but this one ranks pretty high. Such a simple song on the surface, but the lyrics are so powerful and honest. I've heard it thousands of times, but it still hits me like a ton of bricks."
“Tupelo Honey” by Van Morrison: "This song is all-out devotion. It triggers the awareness of your surroundings and really makes you appreciate the company you keep."
“Two” by Ryan Adams: "I’ve been a fan of Ryan Adams for the longest time. I respect him as a true songwriter, but also that he’s not afraid to take risks throughout his career."
