On Friday morning of last week (May 11), Kip Moore made his national television debut when he performed his current Top 5 hit, ‘Somethin’ ‘Bout a Truck’ on ‘Live! With Kelly.’

Looking like his typical cute and charming self, Moore belted out his debut single to the in-studio audience. Moore wore a black jacket, jeans and a red ball cap, while strumming away on his guitar with his full band backing him up.

Following his performance, the show’s host, Kelly Ripa, and her fill-in co-host, Nick Lachey, shook hands with the singer, praising him for a phenomenal job on his television debut. Rippa went on to compliment Moore on the solid job done on his debut album, ‘Up All Night,’ which hit stores just a couple of weeks ago.

Moore also shared funny stories with the hosts, the studio audience and the viewers at home about life on the road, which he admits is getting a little bit better with every passing day, especially now that he’s traveling on an actual tour bus.

“[We used to travel in what] was basically this airport shuttle that was converted with bunks,” Moore said with a grin. “People would say, ‘Well how bad can it be?’ I said, ‘I’ll tell you what … get in go-cart, and ride through a field that’s wide open, and see if you can sleep on it. It was bad, man! It would leak fumes all inside with constant carbon monoxide. It was rough. We got a bus now though!”

And it’s a good thing because Moore’s summer has the hot newcomer criss-crossing the country non-stop. He is currently on tour with labelmates David Nail and Billy Currington. Click here to see a full list of where Moore will be performing in the coming months.
