Maren Morris brought live music to Des Moines' Water Works Park Amphitheater on Thursday for Big Country Bash. The 29-year-old performed a medley of hits as well as tracks from her sophomore project, "Girl."
As the sun set, blue and purple florescent lights glowed and Morris walked into the spotlight. With smoke bursting and the soulful sounds of the guitar playing, Morris opened with the title track "Girl." She had an all-black outfit for the night. Morris transitioned from her feminist anthem to "80s Mercedes" off her debut project "Hero."
"If you've been a fan of mine for a long time, you know I'm obsessed with this type of car," Morris said before introducing the song to the crowd. Purple and rainbow lights flickered as her guitarist did a brief solo.
Morris slowed it down with "Good Woman" from "Girl." For the more traditional country record, lovers could be seen embracing each other and parents holding their kids, rocking back and forth for the heartwarming track.
Morris had a ton of stories for her fans. Before "There's a Song for Everything," she told the audience the reasons why it took her two years to release a new project: Morris said that she was touring a lot during that time. "I had to learn how to write a song on the back of a tour bus," she said. Morris' "A Song for Everything" was inspired by conversations with her friend about their youth. Whether heartbreak or a fight with your boyfriend, Morris said: "There's a song for everything."
