Morgan Wallen’s son helped the singer make ‘One Thing at a Time’

Before One Thing at a Time was released, Wallen and producer Joey Moi gave a preview of the album to Billboard. During the Billboard interview, Wallen revealed his two-year-old son was present for the making of the album.

 “He started coming in there and banging on guitar strings and, you know, delete songs for Joey and stuff like that,” Wallen told Billboard. “But honestly, he brought a lot of joy into the room. He brought a new energy that we hadn’t had in there before.”

According to Billboard, young Indie “was frequently in Moi’s lap at the console, turning knobs.”

Wallen’s son was born in July 2020, and Wallen’s ex-girlfriend KT Smith is Indie’s mother.

Morgan Wallen’s sister also helped make the album

Wallen has three sisters: Ashlyne Wallen, Mikaela Wallen, and Lacey Wallen. In the interview with Billboard, it was revealed that Wallen’s sister Ashlyne also helped make One Thing at a Time.

“We’ve always been super, super tight,” Wallen told Billboard about Ashlyne. “We grew up in church singing hymns and stuff and learning how to harmonize with each other and sing three-part harmony.”

On One Thing at a Time, Ashlyne provides vocals on the song “Outlook.”

Wallen wanted Ashlyne to sing on the song because “it seemed appropriate from everything that we grew up learning and everything that we lived through together.”

According to Billboard, Wallen also wanted Mikaela to appear somewhere on the album, “but she had just given birth so the timing didn’t work out.”
