Amazon Music announced and released the digital track by 19-time Billboard Music Award winner Morgan Wallen, “Graveyard Whistling [Amazon Music Original],” a reimagined version of the 2014 song by English rock band, Nothing But Thieves.
Wallen showcases his vocal versatility and emotional depth, while capturing the track through a country lens. The song trades the original’s alt-rock sound for a more introspective, acoustic-driven atmosphere. While staying true to the heartfelt lyrics, Wallen infuses them with the raw sincerity and soul of modern country storytelling.

Available on September 19 the release features new, original artwork and features “Dark Til Daylight” as the b-side to the track. Fans in the U.S. can pre-order the exclusive 7” now only in the Amazon Music app here.
Wallen’s Amazon Music Original arrives on the heels of the release of his most recent album, I’m The Problem, with overwhelming fan response leading to a fifth week at No. 1 on Billboard's Top 200. With the release, Wallen broke the record for most streamed country record in its first day on Amazon Music.
About Morgan Wallen:
Morgan Wallen sets the pace in, and beyond, country music – with Billboard calling him “one of the biggest stars in the music world right now” and The New Yorker adding “[he’s] popular on a scale that seems to circumvent genre entirely.” With 18 No. 1 singles at Country radio, 19 Billboard Music Awards to-date, more than 190 weeks spent atop Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart (the most in country music history), the highest selling country tour under his belt and more, Wallen has propelled country music to a global level in less than five years.
Wallen’s fourth studio album, I’m The Problem, available now via Big Loud / Mercury, debuted at No. 1 globally across seven countries; while his preceding albums – Dangerous: The Double Album and One Thing At A Time – have remained in the top 10 of the Billboard 200 chart for more than 100 weeks each, making him the first artist ever to achieve that feat. I’m The Problem – which Hits Daily Double observes is “a 37-song cycle of self-reckoning” – has already yielded three No. 1’s at Country radio, including the title track, which has remained at No. 1 for eight weeks. Wallen also broke his own record for the most simultaneous entries in Billboard Hot 100 History, with 37 songs charting on release week.
Wallen’s 20-stadium-show 2025 I’m the Problem Tour kicked off on June 20 in Houston, Texas. Coupled with his personally-curated, multi-genre Sand In My Boots Music Festival in Gulf Shores, Alabama and album release show at The Roundhouse in London in May, these 22 shows are the only place to see the superstar this year.
Wallen continues to donate a portion of every ticket sold to his Morgan Wallen Foundation — which supports youth music and athletic programs and gives communities access to essentials in times of crisis. More at MorganWallen.com.
