Morgan Wade is a singer/songwriter from Floyd, Virginia who burst onto the country scene around 2018 when she began writing songs as a freshman in college. She recorded her first album Puppets With My Heart which was credited to the breaking up with her boyfriend.

Morgan dropped her colossal debut album Reckless on Us in 2021 and has gone on to tour the world in celebration of this groundbreaking release, she has been back in the studio and recently gave us 80’s movie and follows that up with the fantastic college dreamer track Fall In Love With Me, both tracks are from her soon to be released new album Psychopath due for release August 25th.
