Craig Morgan’s 6th Annual Charity Weekend Was A Huge Success! Craig Morgan is thrilled with the results of his 6th annual Charity Motocross Ride, Concert and Sporting Clay Shoot. The two-day’s events and auction raised more than $73,000, bringing the four-year total to $250,000. “Year-after-year I am blown away by the support for this event from our celebrity friends and the Dickson and Middle Tennessee communities. I am so proud of the amount of money raised to help the children and families in this area and am already looking forward to our 7th annual event next summer.” -Morgan Proceeds from the weekend will benefit the Craig Morgan Charity Fund, a component fund of The Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee. The Craig Morgan Charity Fund continues to raise funds to benefit foster children in Dickson County and throughout Middle Tennessee. The ultimate charitable goal for Craig is to establish Billy’s Place, a welcoming home for temporarily displaced children.
Craig Morgan Is Set To Release A Brand New Single, “More Truck Than Cars.” Craig Morgan will release his latest single, “More Trucks Than Cars,” from his recent album This Ole Boy in upcoming days. Written by Morgan with Phil O’Donnell and Craig Wiseman, the song is an anthem for the southern lifestyle, depicted in stars that light the night sky, biscuits, grits and gravy, ‘Ole Glory’ flying high and a landscape where you’ll sooner spot a truck before you see a car. And Morgan can wholeheartedly relate to his lyric “meanwhile back in Tennessee we’re raising our babies and our own green beans.” Craig Morgan’s “More Trucks Than Cars” is available today via PlayMPE for airplay on country radio with an August 27 impact date. The song is equally relatable to metropolitan areas of the U.S. where there is no shortage of hard-working Americans and a touch of the southern lifestyle is a hot commodity. While in New York earlier this year, Morgan was surprised at the number of trucks he spotted amongst the sea of yellow cabs in Manhattan.

The tongue-in-cheek tune colorfully describes the town’s hottest catch “…with a bag of seed on her suntan shoulder, cut off jeans and a tight tank top with a big red mower on it…She’s a CORN STAR.” Fans are all ears for the song, as it has quickly become a live show favorite. “Corn Star” is the follow up to Morgan’s Top 15 hit and title track “This Ole Boy.” The New York Times describes the song as one that ‘prizes a certain kind of woman, not the kind you’d meet at the corner of Hollywood and Vine,‘ while 4 A Song shares it’s about a ‘True country girl who hauls her own seed, drives her own tractor and takes the ribbons at the county fair.‘ News of the latest single comes on the heels of announcing the season 3 premier of Craig Morgan’s award-winning TV show, “Craig Morgan: All Access Outdoors.” Starting July 1, viewers can catch Morgan every Sunday night at 11pm (EST) on the Outdoor Channel.
