Morgan Wallen has included a sneak preview of a brand new unreleased song, ‘Last Time I Checked’, as part of his blockbuster 2027 tour announcement of the same name.
You can hear the synth-backed, pop-leaning track in the background of Wallen's newly shared 2027 Last Time I Checked Tour reveal, with the ‘Thought You Should Know’ singer-songwriter's sleek drawl gliding across the cushioning instrumental.
It's only a brief snippet, but it's clear from this clip that ‘Last Time I Checked’ is cut from a similar cloth to Wallen's recent singles, ‘Been By Now’ and ‘Last Thing You Need’, the latter of which features on the official Grand Theft Auto VI soundtrack.
Wallen appears to be delving further into this nostalgic, synth-driven territory, seemingly backing up what his go-to producer, Charlie Handsome, said in an interview earlier this year when he outlined that he wants Wallen to score more Pop Radio hits.
Excitingly, with the Last Time I Checked Tour being named in honour of this song, it's clear this track is pivotal to Wallen's next chapter - perhaps it's even the name of the album.
With the ‘Last Night’ chart-topper offering fans a fleeting taste of this new song and naming his 2027 run after it, we suspect he's readying ‘Last Time I Checked’ for an imminent release as to looks to keep the buzz high around the tour announcement.
It's also worth noting that Wallen 2027 tour kicks off on June 11th, and his headline set at Sand in My Boots Festival takes place a few weeks earlier. It feels like this is a strong indication that the country titan will drop his next album in the first half of the year, so Wallen has plenty of fresh material to add into his tour setlist.
Either way, the excitement is through-the-roof as we finally get confirmation that the ‘Love Somebody’ singer-songwriter will be returning to the road in 2027. And with a new album seemingly on the horizon, and potentially some international shows too, 2027 is already shaping up to be a busy year for Wallen and his loyal fans.
