Moore co-wrote this tune with his songwriting buddies Justin Weaver and Weston Davis, and it displays Moore’s rich, baritone voice. The tune deals with a failed romance, however, Moore is able to make it work, by taking responsibility for his actions.
“If there’s a wrong road, I’m damn sure gonna take it, Where there’s smoke, my pocket lighter sparked the fire, Where there’s blue lights, just read me my rights,” Moore sings, while staying true to his identity and roots.
His music video for “I’m to Blame,” directed by Peter Zavadil, is clever, witty and authentic. Towards the end of the video, Moore’s character reclaims his female lover, which is an added treat, as he showcases his rebellious side.
