The day before Hurd & Morris tied the knot in March, Hurd released “Diamonds or Twine” as a wedding gift for his bride-to-be, debuting the song with SiriusXM The Highway. Hurd first played the soulful love track, which he co-penned with Laura Veltz and Mark Trussell, for Morris the night he popped the question in Michigan last summer. However, unbeknownst to Morris, the “Love In A Bar” singer/songwriter secretly recorded the track with long-time producer, Aaron Essuis, as a gift to celebrate their wedding weekend.

Hurd, a celebrated songwriter with cuts by Blake Shelton, Lady Antebellum and Luke Bryan, adds “Diamonds Or Twine” to his breakout EP of 2017, a collection of four tracks released for fans as an introduction to his artist project. Hurd is currently in the studio working on his debut album expected later this year.
