Jason Aldean has released his highly-anticipated 11th studio album, ‘HIGHWAY DESPERADO’, Aldean also recently wrapped a whirlwind headlining tour in Florida.
‘HIGHWAY DESPERADO’ includes fourteen total tracks, including Aldean’s breakthrough Hot 100 chart-topping single ‘Try That In A Small Town,’ which recently became his 28th career #1 single at Country radio. The album also features his next single, ‘Let Your Boys Be Country’ and three tracks co-written by Aldean.
Aldean sat down with CBS Mornings last week from his Nashville-based studio, where he spoke about working on his 11th studio album including getting back in the writer’s chair, his sold-out ‘Highway Desperado Tour’, career milestones, and reaction to his new music.
‘HIGHWAY DESPERADO’ follows Aldean’s double album ‘MACON’, ‘GEORGIA’, which earned Aldean his 27th career-charting #1 single, ‘Trouble With A Heartbreak,’ as well as a Billboard Music Award nomination for “Top Country Song” and awards from ACM, CMT, iHeart, and a GRAMMY nomination for ‘If I Didn’t Love You’ with Carrie Underwood. Since making his chart debut in 2005, the Georgia native has earned the most Top 10 songs on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart – more than any other artist – his “songs of small-town living, love and loss have resonated with a loyal fanbase” (Billboard) and have “vaulted him to the pinnacle of Country music success” (Atlanta Journal Constitution).
