Jason Aldean Announces That 11th Album HIGHWAY DESPERADO Will Drop November 3rd
Album To Feature Hot 100 Chart-Topping Hit “Try That In A Small Town,” Hit Song, “Tough Crowd,” And Newly Released Track, “Let Your Boys Be Country”
Country music chart topper Jason Aldean is closing out 2023 in a big way! With 27 number one singles, 17 billion streams and 20 million albums sold, reigning ACM Artist of the Decade Jason Aldean today announced his highly-anticipated 11th studio album, HIGHWAY DESPERADO, will be released November 3rd.
In a press release, Aldean shared some insight on the inspiration behind the new project. “I think when I look back on it, I built my career early on my live show, and have been on the road touring since I was 18 years old. For us, touring is our favorite part. Getting on the bus and going town to town and playing our shows and doing our thing and seeing the fans… the title for the tour and album was really inspired from that,” shared Aldean, adding that it also served as inspiration for the album’s title track, which he co-wrote.
The new album marks the Georgia native's first full album since April of 22. HIGHWAY DESPERADO features fourteen total tracks, including Aldean’s breakthrough Hot 100 chart-topping single and current Top 10 Country radio hit, “Try That In A Small Town,” which has more than 120M Global streams to date. The album also features the newly released track “Let Your Boys Be Country,” as well as three tracks co-written by Aldean.
