Whitey Morgan and the 78s

Whitey Morgan spent the first decade of his career raising hell. For the last decade, he’s been raising his son. In 2026, eight years after his last full-length studio project, Whitey Morgan is back with 11 new songs. With its explosive sound and hard-lived lyricism, Hell On The Highway puts on full display the life that Morgan stepped away from to raise his son, while confronting how that world coexists with the family he’s built. The end result of Morgan’s collaboration with GRAMMY-Award winning producer Justin Francis has left him more excited than ever about music. There were years when Morgan wouldn’t pick up a guitar at home. His seven-year-old son had never even seen the iconic Telecaster that his father played on stage more than 100 nights a year. “But now, the living room has two drum sets set up in it … and we play guitars and drums all day. When we’re not doing something else, we’re playing music.” Now, Morgan’s son Wyatt joins his father on tour. The pair can be found riding dirtbikes on an off-day, or skateboarding in a venue alley late into the night. Hell On The Highway finds Morgan raising hell again, this time with his favorite person by his side.
