Buckle up for the new wave of the double album.
We saw Morgan Wallen drop a record-setting double album this year, Eric Church is gearing up to release one (a triple album rather) as well, and now we have Thomas Rhett, although his will come in the form of a Side A and a Side B.
Titled Country Again, it sounds like we might finally see Rhett get back to his country roots and release some of the songs he’s teased in the past. Songs like “More Time Fishin’,” “To The Guys That Date My Girls,” the title track “Country Again,” and more. Songs that leaned much closer to the kind of material he released on his first album.
Rhett addressed his fans in an Instagram post:
“This is one of my favorite records I’ve ever gotten to make. I feel so centered as a person. A lot of these songs were written just kind of about the lessons I’ve learned over this decade, and for sure in 2020, like a lot of y’all have.
Thank you for inspiring me every day just to write better songs, to be a better singer, to be a better artist. I just can’t wait for you to get your hands on this album because I do think it’s some of my best work I’ve ever done.”
Country Again Side A is due out on April 30th.
