Los Angeles, California (June 30, 2025)- Country music hitmaker and Army Reserve soldier Craig Morgan is set to bring his signature patriotism and heartfelt storytelling to national television this Friday, July 4, with a special performance of “American Soundtrack” on Live with Kelly & Mark. The powerful song is the title track of his newly released EP, American Soundtrack, out now via BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville. The six-track project reflects Morgan’s deep-rooted love for faith, family, and country—values that have shaped both his music and his life for more than two decades.
Known for career-defining songs like “Redneck Yacht Club,” “Almost Home,” “International Harvester,” “Soldier,” and the emotional ballad “The Father, My Son and the Holy Ghost,” Craig Morgan has become one of country music’s most respected voices. His songs have earned nearly 2.5 billion career streams and more than 25 Billboard-charting singles, solidifying his place as a staple of American country music. The release of American Soundtrack marks another meaningful chapter in his journey, with each track celebrating the spirit of everyday heroes and the strength of the American people.
Morgan’s Fourth of July television appearance is one of several high-profile stops this month as he kicks off a nationwide tour. On July 2, he appears on the Matthew West Podcast, followed by a live performance at the Greeley Stampede in Colorado on July 3. Later that evening on July 4, following his television performance, he will take the stage at the Fremont Street Experience in Las Vegas.

Beyond his achievements as an artist, Craig Morgan’s life is defined by service. Before rising to fame in country music, he served seventeen years in the U.S. Army and Army Reserve. In 2023, he made headlines by re-enlisting as a Warrant Officer in the Army Reserve, continuing a lifelong commitment to serving his country. He has performed for U.S. troops in over sixteen overseas tours and is a recipient of the Army’s Outstanding Civilian Service Medal, the USO Merit Award, and was inducted into the U.S. Field Artillery Hall of Fame.
Morgan’s unwavering dedication to America’s military community is central to who he is. His advocacy extends through his work with the USO, Operation Finally Home, and other veteran-focused organizations. His emotional memoir, God, Family, Country, provides an intimate look at the highs and lows of his remarkable life—from covert military missions in Panama and Thailand to his personal path toward country stardom. The book shares never-before-told stories of courage, faith, and perseverance.
As the nation celebrates Independence Day, Craig Morgan’s performance of “American Soundtrack” is more than just a musical appearance—it’s a tribute to the American spirit, delivered by a man who has lived it firsthand.
