Kameron Marlowe Shares New Music and Wedding Details: 'My Muse'

Published: May 19, 2025

Country star Kameron Marlowe is transitioning out of his Sad Songs for the Soul era and entering his wedding era! Speaking exclusively with PEOPLE ahead of his set at Morgan Wallen's Sand in My Boots Festival in Alabama, Marlowe opened up about his new music and upcoming nuptials with fiancée Meagan Bennington.

At the festival, Marlowe debuted new music that shows "a very different side" of his songwriting, which is a departure from his most recent album Sad Songs for the Soul, released in February. "The sad stuff was amazing, it was fun, especially for wintertime... but I really have some fun, upbeat songs that I hope people like. We're going to find out," he says.

Meagan Bennington: The Muse Behind the Music

Marlowe's musical inspirations come from billboards and movies (his favorites are Forrest Gump and The Green Mile), but his biggest source has been his longtime fiancée, who he proposed to in April 2023. "She's always my muse. I ain't going to lie to you. She speaks in song titles," he says of Bennington. "She's very distinguished, I'd say. So I get a lot of song titles just from conversations that we have."

Most recently, that was demonstrated on his 2024 track "Quit You." "But I wouldn't say that came from a conversation," he clarifies. "That was just a thought that I had. Basically, the song means no matter what, I could never not be addicted to the love that you give me."

The Upcoming Wedding

Marlowe and Bennington are set to wed on June 27 in Montana, which is also where they got engaged. "I think I can speak for both of us when I say this, but I think we're just ready to... We already live together and everything, so we feel like we're already married," he says.

Adding, "I think the wedding planning has been the biggest stressor in the world, and I think we're just excited to be, like, 'Ah, finally we're married.'" The wedding will be an intimate affair with "close people and our families" in attendance. Afterward, the couple will take off for a honeymoon that Marlowe says will be "amazing."

Bennington previously told PEOPLE that she "always wanted to marry my best friend and I refused to settle for anything less." "When Kameron came into my life I knew I had found the person I wanted to spend every day with," she said.
