Maren Morris Announces Debut Album “Hero” Due June 3rd

Rising Country songstress, Maren Morris announced the release of her first full-length album this morning. The release is set to land on June 3rd and will  feature eleven tracks, which were all co-written by Morris as well as co-produced the record alongside Mike Busbee, who has worked with Lady Antebellum and Lauren Alaina

This record really encapsulates everything that’s been bouncing around my head for the past 3 years,” Maren shared via her Facebook page. “It’s woven with every thread of my influences, which pulls from the country and R&B landscapes.”

Maren Morris’ Hero Track Listing:

Maren Morris Hero

  1. “Sugar”
  2. “Rich”
  3. “My Church”
  4. “I Could Use a Love Song”
  5. “80’s Mercedes”
  6. “Drunk Girls Don’t Cry”
  7. “How It’s Done”
  8. “Just Another Thing”
  9. “I Wish I Was”
  10. “Second Wind”
  11. “Once”

I Wish I Was’ is the most autobiographical song on this record and I admittedly was not the hero in that story, but I am the hero in mine,” notes Morris. “I’ve come such a long way from who I was in Texas, who I am as a writer, who I am as a woman today. I think the message of this record is self acceptance and awareness, and that to me is heroic.”

In addition to her hit single “My Church,” Columbia Nashville’s press release hypes the addition of the rising favorites “80s Mercedes,” “How It’s Done,” “Once” and “I Wish I Was,” which also was the inspiration for the album’s name.

Is it June 3rd yet?!?
