Biography

Early life

Morris was born in Arlington, Texas to Scott and Kellie Morris, who met at a bar in Dallas where they both worked. [8] [9] Maren was named after actress Maren Jensen, whose name Kellie came across while watching Battlestar Galactica . [10] She has a sister, Karsen, who is 3 years younger. [8] [11] Maren's parents owned the Maren Karsen Aveda Hair Salon and Morris spent much of her childhood at the salon. [12] She later worked there as a front desk clerk and guest coordinator. [12] In elementary school, she participated in the school choir, performed theater, and played soccer. [13]

Singing start and early performances

When she was around 9 years old, at a party at her house for salon employees, she performed a karaoke version of "Blue" by LeAnn Rimes, who she idolized, at which time her parents discovered that she can sing. [8]

In September 2000, aged 11, one of Morris's first performances was at Johnnie High's, a country music talent show similar in style to the Grand Ole Opry . [8] [14] From that moment, Morris realized that "this [singing] is my calling". [8]

Morris started touring her home state of Texas when she was 11 years old. Her father acted as her roadie, manager, and booking agent. [8] Morris often performed in bars and clubs in Dallas and Fort Worth. [15] [16] She considered music to be her "weekend job". [8]

When she was 12 years old, her father bought her an acoustic Ibanez guitar and taught her a few chords, which inspired her to start writing songs. [8] [15] She went to James Bowie High School in Arlington where she continued to play soccer, graduating in 2008. Her favorite classes were creative writing and art. [8]

Career beginnings in Texas

In 2005, Morris was one of several high school students from across the country selected to attend a Grammy Awards camp sponsored by the Grammy Foundation. She took her first plane trip alone to attend the camp, where she met David Foster, Paul Williams, and Jimmy Jam. [8] [17] [8] [18]

That year, at the age of 15, Morris released her debut studio album titled Walk On, released on the independent Mozzi Bozzi label and containing ten tracks of mostly self written material. [3] The record was financed by her parents who "literally sold the furniture out of the house" to pay for its recording and release, according to her mother. [19] Smith Music released Morris's second studio album in 2007, titled All That It Takes, which also contained mostly self-composed tracks. [3]

In her late teens, Morris auditioned for American Idol , America's Got Talent , The Voice , and Nashville Star and was rejected from each. [8] Years later, Morris felt vindicated when her songs were used by contestants performing on American Idol . [8] [20]

In 2010, Morris enrolled at the University of North Texas [3] but left after one semester. [8]

Morris also joined a teen band called They Were Stars, with whom she played keyboards and provided harmony vocals. [8] In 2011, the Mozzi Bozzi label released her third studio disc titled Live Wire. [21]

Move to Nashville and songwriting

Kacey Musgraves, whom Morris had met on the Texas music scene and lived in Nashville, encouraged Morris to also move to Nashville. After saving a few thousand dollars, in 2013, at 22 years old, Morris packed a U-Haul trailer and moved to Nashville. [8] Morris spent her first year in Nashville networking and meeting other writers. She was introduced to Carla Wallace, co-owner of Big Yellow Dog Music, a music publisher. Impressed by her songwriting, Wallace signed her to a four-year songwriting contract with the company. She began co-writing material with other songwriters, [8] and her material was soon recorded by several country artists. Tim McGraw recorded "Last Turn Home" for his 2014 album Sundown Heaven Town . During a writing session for the song, she met future husband Ryan Hurd. [22] [23] "Second Wind" was recorded by Kelly Clarkson for her 2015 album Piece by Piece . [16] [13] [24] [25]

Some of her material was more personal, and Morris was encouraged by Wallace to start recording music herself. After listening to the demo recording of "My Church", which she wrote in March 2015, Morris realized she wanted to sing the song herself. [8] It was also around this time that she met record producer Busbee, who produced the song. [26]

2016–2017: Breakthrough with Hero

Morris self-released five songs on eponymous extended play, Maren Morris via Spotify in August 2015. [27] The songs gained 2.5 million streams on Spotify in a month, with three songs appearing on Spotify's US and Global "Viral 50" chart. The success of Morris's EP attracted the interest of major labels, and she was signed to Columbia Nashville, an imprint of Sony Music Nashville, in September 2015. [28] [29] The label re-released the five-song EP in November 2015. "My Church" was issued as the lead single. [30] The EP charted at number 22 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart [31] and number one on the Top Heatseekers chart. [32]

"My Church" peaked at number five on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart, [33] number nine on the Billboard Country Airplay chart, [34] and number three on the Canada Country chart. [35] In January 2018, Morris won Best Country Solo Performance for the song at the 60th Annual Grammy Awards. [36] Her first Columbia Nashville album was released in June 2016 titled Hero . [8] It reached number five on the Billboard 200, and number one on the country albums chart. [37] Joe Caramanica of The New York Times called Hero "both utterly of its moment and also savvy enough to indicate how the future might sound." [38] Hero included three additional singles: "80's Mercedes", "I Could Use a Love Song" and "Rich". With the exception of "80's Mercedes", the singles reached the top ten of the Billboard country charts between 2016 and 2018. [3]

Morris embarked on a tour with Keith Urban in 2016. [29] This was followed by the headlining "Hero" tour in 2017. [39] A deluxe edition of Hero was released in March 2017, featuring three new recordings. [40] She also provided vocals to Thomas Rhett's "Craving You", released in April 2017. [41] Morris was also featured on Niall Horan's pop song "Seeing Blind", released in June 2018 [42] and opened for Horan on his Flicker World Tour in 2018. [43] In response to the 2017 Las Vegas shooting, Morris released "Dear Hate", a song she had written and recorded with Vince Gill, with all proceeds from the track going to the Music City Cares Fund. [44] Morris earned "Best New Artist" accolade from the Country Music Association and several more Grammy nominations. [3]

Morris was chosen by Zedd and Grey to provide the lead vocals for their pop single "The Middle", released in January 2018. [45] The track became her breakout pop crossover single and expanded her audience. [3] "The Middle" reached peaked at number five on the Billboard Hot 100. [46] Taylor Weatherby of Billboard commented that the song "may have drawn the roadmap for a reliable new path to crossover success." [47] On October 5, 2018, Morris performed as a special guest during Taylor Swift's Reputation Stadium Tour in Arlington, Texas, performing "The Middle" with Swift. [48]

Morris's next studio album Girl was released on March 8, 2019. According to Morris, the songs reflected her own experiences as a young woman while also highlighting the experiences of other women her age. [49] Rolling Stone rated the album three and a half stars, calling it "where Morris makes her pop move". [50] It topped the Billboard country albums chart and the reached the top five of the Billboard 200. [3] She embarked on Girl: The World Tour in 2019. [51] Its lead single of the same name reached the number one spot on the Billboard country airplay chart and number eight on the Billboard country songs chart. It was followed by the second single "The Bones", which topped both the Country Airplay and Country Songs charts in 2020. [34] [33] A duet version with Hozier became her second crossover pop hit, peaking at number 12 on the Hot 100 [52] and number one on the adult contemporary chart. [53] Girl won Album of the Year at the 2019 Country Music Association Awards. [54]

In March 2019, Morris formed a group with Brandi Carlile, Amanda Shires and Natalie Hemby called The Highwomen (in reference to The Highwaymen) and began recording with producer Dave Cobb. [55] The Highwomen made their live debut in April 2019 at Loretta Lynn's 87th birthday concert performing "It Wasn't God Who Made Honky Tonk Angels". [56] "Redesigning Women" was released in July 2019 as the first single from the group's self-titled debut album, The Highwomen , which was released in September 2019. The album had a top-ten debut on Billboard 200 and number one on the Country Chart. [57] [58] Busbee died in September 2019. [26]

In 2020, Morris herself won Female Vocalist of the Year at the Country Music Association Awards, [59] and won Female Artist of the Year at the Academy of Country Music Awards in both 2020 and 2021. [60]

2021–2023: Humble Quest and The Bridge

Morris collaborated with husband Ryan Hurd on the single "Chasing After You", released in February 2021. [61] The song reached the top five on the Billboard country charts. [34] [33] She was the featured guest vocalist on John Mayer's single "Last Train Home", released in June 2021, and appeared on "Why You No Love Me" and "Shot In The Dark" on his album Sob Rock , released in July 2021. In January 2022, Morris released "Circles Around This Town". [62] It was followed by the release of her next studio album Humble Quest in March 2022, produced by Greg Kurstin. [63] GQ magazine described its sound as a "return from glittery pop to her stripped-down country origins". [64] Humble Quest debuted at number two on the Billboard country albums chart [65] and number 21 on the Billboard 200. [66] Pitchfork gave it an 8.0 rating, calling it "matter-of-factly masterful". [67] Rolling Stone gave it 3.5 stars, calling it "fascinating, and proudly unresolved". [68] Morris reunited with Zedd for their second collaboration, titled "Make You Say", alongside Beauz, released in August 2022. [69]

In September 2023, Morris announced her departure from the country music industry. [70] She told the Los Angeles Times that the reason for her decision is because she has "said everything" she has wanted to say. That month, Columbia released an extended play titled The Bridge. The EP contains the tracks "The Tree" and "Get the Hell Out of Here". Greg Kurstin and Jack Antonoff alternated as producers on these songs. [70]

2024–present: The Wild Robot and Dreamsicle

In August 2024, Morris performed her song "Better than We Found It" at the 2024 Democratic National Convention in Chicago. [71] Her songs "Even When I'm Not", and "Kiss the Sky" were included in the DreamWorks Animation film The Wild Robot (2024). [72] The latter was met with critical acclaim, earning Morris her first nominations at the Golden Globe Awards, Critics Choice Awards, Satellite Awards, among others, and was short listed for Best Original Song at the 97th Academy Awards, though it was ultimately not nominated. [73] [74] In late 2024, Morris released the EP Intermission , which features five new tracks and includes a collaboration with Julia Michaels. Morris also released a cover of Billy Idol's "Dancing with Myself", and in October, she released the song, "People Still Show Up". In November, Billboard named Morris the 99th Greatest Country Artist of All-Time. [7]

In January 2025, Morris released her second collaboration with Julia Michaels titled "Scissors". [75]

Dreamsicle , her fourth studio album, was released in May 2025 to generally favorable reviews from music critics. [76] [77] [78] It includes all five tracks from her Intermission EP, and the singles "People Still Show Up", "Carry Me Through", "Bed No Breakfast", and "Too Good". [79] [80]

Artistry

Morris's music blends country music [3] with country pop, [81] R&B [82] and hip hop. [3] Writers and critics commented that Morris's first two Columbia albums combined country with R&B and hip hop musical styles. Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic found that Hero (2016) included "R&B influences" that "twists the rhymes" and "[rides] the beat" while "undercutting her boasts with sly wit". [83] Jewly Hight of Billboard described Hero as "a signifier of country-pop's fluidity and a creative process that resembles the track-building of pop, R&B and hip-hop." [81] The Hartford Courant praised Girl (2019) for incorporating similar styles: "If a lot of male country singers dabble with hip-hop in ways that sometimes feel stilted, Morris brings straight-up elements of '90s R&B to the album on songs like the bedroom-centric 'RSVP'." [84]

When reviewing Girl (2019), Jon Caramanica described her voice as "versatile" in the way it can move between both the country and pop genres. [85] In 2019, Chris Richards of The Washington Post described Morris as having "the best voice of any country singer working today". Richards further explained, "Listen to her jump in and out of her lyrics and you'll hear a sophistication that feels like something metaphysical." [86]

In an interview with NPR in 2022, Morris was asked about whether she still identified with the country music genre and responded: "even though I live in Nashville and I'm from Texas and I feel like my songwriting at its core is country, I think you can hear a lot of different influences when you've heard any of my records." [87] Other writers have agreed, including Stephen Thomas Erlewine: "Morris's music was grounded in country -- prior to striking gold as a performer, she was a professional songwriter in Nashville -- but she also incorporated elements of pop, R&B, hip-hop, and rock, creating a distinctive, stylish hybrid that had wide appeal outside her chosen genre." [3]

Morris has cited various artists of different genres as influences on her career, including Katy Perry, Coldplay, [88] Linda Ronstadt, [87] Dolly Parton, [89] Taylor Swift, Chaka Khan, [89] and Hank Williams. [90]

Advocacy

Support for rights and racial justice

Morris's outspoken persona and her stance on various social and political issues, including her support for LGBTQ+ rights, women's rights, gender equality, and racial justice has sparked both support and backlash from the country music industry and has faced backlash by conservative media outlets.

"I don’t need to feel like I have to always be that person that speaks up, I think I come across a lot louder than I actually am because everyone else is so quiet." - Morris on Apple Music Country's Proud Radio with Hunter Kelly [91] [92]

Equity in country music

"I think there are people in country music that want it to be niche. They don’t want it to expand. They don’t care about it becoming more inclusive. It’s theirs, and everyone else is an other, or woke, or whatever. That’s sad to me, because I feel like country music at its core is people’s real stories. And to think there’s only one kind of person that gets to live them out and celebrate them is not why I’ve chosen to live there or make music within those walls."

"I'm a white woman in country music. I already have this sort of leg-up. There's a huge disparity between men and women in our genre, there's even more of a disparity between white women and black women trying to be in country music." - Morris on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in 2021 [94]

Morris has been an advocate for making the country genre more equitable for fellow artists. She has commented on the inequalities particularly between white and black artists in the genre. In her 2020 Country Music Association Awards acceptance speech, Morris named several black artists who helped make the award possible including Mickey Guyton, Linda Martell, and Brittney Spencer. [95]

Support for LGBTQ+ rights, feud with Brittany Aldean, and backlash in conservative media

In August 2022, Morris replied to an Instagram post made by Brittany Aldean in which she thanked her parents for not changing her gender after she went through a "tomboy phase". Both Morris and other country music singers including Cassadee Pope perceived Aldean's comments as transphobic. [96] While interviewing Brittany Aldean, Fox News Channel host Tucker Carlson referred to Morris as a "lunatic country music person." [96] In response to this comment, she sold T-shirts through her website featuring the phrase "lunatic country music person" and the telephone number of the Trans Lifeline. She also said that proceeds from the shirts would be donated to GLAAD. [96] In September 2022, she partnered with GLAAD to design a new T-shirt in honor of Spirit Day. [97] [98] [99] [100] [101] In November 2022, she only briefly attended the Country Music Association Awards despite being nominated, saying that she did not feel comfortable going. [102] [103] In 2022, during her public disagreement with country singer Jason Aldean and his wife Brittany, Aldean name-dropped Morris on his concert on Nashville, and waited as his crowd booed Morris's name. [104] [105]

An opinion piece by Lauren DeBellis Appell, published by Fox News, stated that Morris is a "proponent of child sex change surgeries and obsessed with allowing drag queens to shake their stuff in front of kids" and called her an "enraged Karen" and an "extreme leftist". [106]

Leaving country music industry due to misogyny and racism

Morris told Los Angeles Times in September 2023 that she planned to leave the country music industry. She cited the country music industry's unwillingness to reckon with issues of misogyny and racism, as well as its reluctance to support artists from minority groups, as her reasons for doing so. [70] Lee Greenwood criticized Morris for insulting country music and patriotism, saying that country music is by definition about patriotism. [107]

Feud with Morgan Wallen

In early 2021, Morris spoke out against country artist Morgan Wallen when a video surfaced of him using the N-word, a racial slur. Morris wrote on social media: "We all know it wasn’t his first time using that word. We keep them rich and protected at all costs with no recourse" and "I don't care if it's awkward sitting down the row from you at the next awards show — call them out!" [108] Morris said that she and her son received death threats after her comments on the incident. [109] [110]

Fundraising for social justice

In April 2021, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Morris was one of several artists that performed at a virtual fundraiser at which Shein donated $300,000 to the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, Together We Rise, and Ecologi. [111]

In September 2022, Morris raised over $100,000 for transgender rights after Tucker Carlson called her a "lunatic country music person" on his show. [112]

Fundraising for music programs and hunger

In 2017, Morris started the Heroes Fund, which raises money for music education in public schools. [113] Through the program, which was funded by fees paid by fans for "meet and greet" events at her concerts, Morris donated $70,000 to the music and drama departments of East Nashville Magnet High School. [114]

In August 2021, Morris joined several country artists for a concert that raised $450,000 for Together: Feeding Nashville to address food security in the Nashville area. [115]

Recognition for activism

Morris was named to the 2024 Women in Music Visionary list by Billboard . [116] Her actions to distance herself from the country music industry was described as "powerful" by an opinion piece in CNN . [117] She was named the Changemaker of the Year in 2023 by Variety . [118] An article in The New York Times described her as a "risk-taker". [119] Out described her as a "groundbreaker" and "innovator". [5]

In May 2023, GLAAD awarded Morris with its Excellence in Media Award for promoting acceptance of the LGBTQ community within the country music genre throughout her career. [120] [121]

Artists that have supported or/and spoken highly about Morris's activism include: The Chicks, [122] Laura Veltz, [123] Joy Oladokun, [123] Meghan Linsey, [124] Victoria Shaw, [122] Brothers Osborne, [125] Brittney Spencer, [126] Jessie Murph, [127] Carly Pearce, [128] Niall Horan, [129] Keith Urban, [130] Hozier, [131] Lady A, [132] Sam Hunt, [133] Kelsea Ballerini, [134] Jason Isbell, [135] Brandi Carlile, [136] Zedd, [137] Vince Gill, [138] Elton John, [139] and Taylor Swift.
