Morgan Evans Gives Tour Of His Nashville Home

Morgan Evans recently joined YouTube channel UPROXX & Straight Talk to give a tour of his first house with wife, fellow country artist Kelsea Ballerini, and to make Citronella Lamps.

Evans and Ballerini moved in the house about “a year and a half ago”, which includes a wall of various guitars, a home studio, white marbled kitchen, and lush green backyard. He also shares stories about his first band, earning his law degree, DIY projects and following his dreams.

He also notes his career origins: “How music became a career path is kind of weird. I mean, the idea of growing up and playing music wasn’t really a thing. In my hometown, or even in Australia in general, I think a lot of the time when someone asks you what you do and you say music, their next question would be, ‘Well, what else do you do?'”

Evans recently shared a video on social media of him watching an episode of Jackass, the reality comedy television series created by Jeff Tremaine, Spike Jonze, and Johnny Knoxville.

He captioned, “Introducing my wife to Jackass has been one of the greatest joys in my life…”

He added, “Hahahaha also, this might be the best scene ever…” showing a montage of people throwing up, as Ballerini laughs with her phone in her hand while rugged up on the couch.

Following his Road To Tamworth win in 2007, which included flying to Nashville to record a single, Evans released his debut EP Big Skies later that same year. In 2012, he followed up with his second and third EPs, Live Each Day and While We’re Young, respectively. The following year, he was named ‘New Oz Artist of the Year’ at the 2013 CMC Awards. 

After supporting artists like Taylor Swift and Thirsty Merc, Evans released his self-titled debut studio album in 2014, which peaked at number 20 on the ARIA Albums Chart, and won a further three CMC Awards including the coveted ‘Oz Artist Of The Year’.

He moved from his hometown in Newcastle, NSW to Nashville in 2016, which led to the release of his debut US hit single, Kiss Somebody. He also topped the charts with fan favourite track, Day Drunk, which spent 25 weeks in the coveted #1 spot in Australia. Both tracks hail from his 2018 self-titled EP and his ARIA Award winning studio album, Things That We Drink To.

He released his latest EP, Country And The Coast Side A, on October 29, 2021. The six-track EP features his current single, Country Outta My Girl as well as Love Is Real, which spent six consecutive weeks at the top of the Countrytown Hot 50 Country Airplay Chart.
