During an interview with Radio.com in Las Vegas, where Moore was performing as a New Artist of the Year nominee on the ACM Awards, he filled us in on the album and why his new single best represents where he's heading with his new music.

"I grew up in a small Southern Baptist town, and the song is speaking of what that's like as a young kid and young teenager," he told Radio.com about "Dirt Road." "[Being] 12, 13 years old [and] trying to understand hellfire, damnation every single Sunday morning. Trying to process that is a tough thing, so that's where that song originated from, and I think there's going to be a lot of people who are going to connect with the song."

Last fall Moore released the single "Young Love," but when he spoke with us in Las Vegas he said "Dirt Road" is the song he wants to lead with for the record.

"This is the one that introduces you to the new sound off the record the best. This is the one that's really going to introduce you to what's coming with this record."
