As she prepares for the release of her third major label album, Obsessed, Morgan Wade gives fans a last tantalising preview with new release ‘Total Control’. Listen below.
The album opener, ‘Total Control’ sees Wade relinquishing her composure in favour of an all-consuming love. With previously released sneak peeks ‘Halloween’, ‘Moth to A Flame’, ‘2AM in London’, and ‘Time to Love, Time to Kill’, anticipation grows for Obsessed, which Rolling Stone calls “a songwriter record that is stripped down, primarily acoustic, and a powerful showcase of Wade’s dynamic vocal capabilities.”
An entirely solo-written 14-track collection, Obsessed was produced by her touring guitarist Clint Wells and showcases Wade at her rawest and most vulnerable. She writes with incredible force about the ache for home and the emotion of being reunited with loved ones, of feeling dangerously preoccupied with someone, and of being in situations that society might consider outside the norm.
On Obsessed, Wade also does a thorough examination and inventory of her journey as a person, not sparing any ugly details when she’s been the one at fault. The project arrives on August 16th and follows her celebrated second album Psychopath, which was named one of 2023’s best albums by The New York Times, Rolling Stone, and more.
Ahead of her new album release Morgan Wade is continuing to tour arenas across America with Alanis Morissette and Joan Jett. The tour finishes in Los Angeles on August 10th.
