Ethan Thompson has seen Kip Moore 1 time.

After moving to Nashville in the early 2000s, Kip Moore (born April 1, 1980) struggled to land a record deal. But in 2011, he signed with MCA Nashville and released "Something 'Bout a Truck" in September of that year. "Something 'Bout a Truck" became Moore's first number one on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. His first studio album "Up All Night" dropped in early 2012 and became the most commercially successful album for a new male country artist in 2012 and 2013. While he was forced to postpone his touring during the coronavirus pandemic like many other artists, he began touring extensively between 2021 and 2022 with emerging country artists like Boy Named Banjo, Jess Maskaluke, and often just himself.
