"I'm to Blame" is a song co-written and recorded by American country music artist Kip Moore. It was released to radio on February 2, 2015 as the first single from his second studio album, Wild Ones. The song was written by Moore, Justin Weaver, and Westin Davis.[1]
Critical reception
Giving it a B+, Jon Freeman of Country Weekly wrote that "Kip's predominantly electric guitar-driven sound…is still intact, but this time the snare drum cracks like a pistol and there's a banjo plinky-plinking for possibly the first time ever in one of his songs. If there's a downside to this one, it's that the 2:16 run time cuts the tune short right as it's really hitting its stride."[2]
Music video
The music video was directed by Peter Zavadil and premiered in April 2015.[3]

The song has sold 156,000 copies in the US as of September 2015.[4]
