FILE - Craig Morgan arrive at the CMT Music Awards in Nashville, Tenn., on April 11, 2022. Morgan's six-track EP, titled Enlisted, is out Friday. – In July, country music star Craig Morgan reenlisted in the Army Reserves on the historic Grand Ole Opry stage. At age 59, the process required a waiver and an extensive physical test. It also inspired the title for the new EP he had been working on: “Enlisted,” out Friday.
The Opry holds particular meaning to Morgan — it's not only a stage he's frequented, but it is also where he spent his last evening with his, who drowned in 2016. “After what happened, happened, everything takes on a new meaning,” he says. “Us not having his physical presence, was missed.” As for the EP — Morgan says he wasn't crazy about the idea of re-recording some of his biggest hits. His manager wanted him to re-do “Redneck Yacht Club,” and he wasn't sure — until he performed another hit, “Almost Home,” at the Opry in 2022 with up-and-comer Jelly Roll and was confronted with his songs' impact.
