Morgan Wallen worked with a special person in one of "One Thing at a Time" songs.

Amid the success of Wallen's new album, Billboard confirmed that Wallen's 2-year-old son, Indie, contributed to the making of his now-hit music project.

In an interview with the music magazine, the 29-year-old "Thought You Should Know" singer revealed that his son helped him while making "One Thing at a Time."

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

The publication added that Indie would always be on producer Joey Moi's lap "at the console, turning knobs."

He did not disclose which songs his son became part of. But Wallen also revealed that his sister, Ashlyne, also helped him in the process.

Morgan Wallen's Sister Also Worked in the Album


Wallen noted that he and his sister grew up in church singing and learning how to harmonize with each other. In his album, he let her give the vocals on "Outlook."

According to the singer, having his sister sing the track was part of the plan as the song "seemed appropriate from everything that we grew up learning and everything that we lived through together."

His other sister, Mikaela, was supposed to appear on the album, as well, but she had just given birth.

Here's a complete tracklist of Morgan Wallen's "One Thing at a Time" album: "Born With a Beer in My Hand," "Last Night," "Everything I Love," "Man Made a Bar" (Feat. Eric Church), "Devil Don't Know," "One Thing at a Time," "'98 Braves," "Ain't That Some," "I Wrote the Book," "Tennessee Numbers," "Hope That's True," "Whiskey Friends," "Sunrise," "Keith Whitley," "In the Bible" (Feat.
