Country fans rejoice, there is plenty of new music available today as Blake Shelton, Lee Brice and Kelsea Ballerini have all released a new album today (11/3).
Blake Shelton’s new album is titled Texoma Shore and is his 11th studio album. The project features 11 new songs.
The lead single from the album is “I’ll Name The Dogs” and is at #11 on the Billboard Country Airplay singles chart this week.
Blake said of his new album versus his previous album, “Man, I’m in a new chapter of my life and I’m ready to express that. And I’m very proud of the If I’m Honest record, but it had some dark tones to it. No question that was a tough time I was coming out of and I’m just not there anymore. I don’t want to wallow in it by promoting that album anymore. I want to promote this new chapter of my life.”
Lee Brice’s new album is a self-titled album and is his 4th studio album. The project features 15 new songs.
The lead single from the album is “Boy” and is at #32 on the Billboard Country Airplay singles chart this week.
Lee says of the new album, “The truth is this record is the most honest, even introspective version, you know, musically, picture of what I am, you know, and who I am right now. There’s just a lot of personal stuff on this record, and I’m excited for people to hear my heart out on my sleeve.”
Kelsea Ballerini’s new album is titled Unapologetically and it is her sophomore album. The project features 12 new songs.
The lead single from the album is “Legends” and is at #23 on the Billboard Country Airplay singles chart this week.
Kelsea says of this new album, “I wrote over 200 hundred songs for this album, and when I started listening to everything and started trying to figure out like, ‘Okay, what is it that you want to say this time?’ ‘Cause The First Time [her debut album] was an introduction, like I wanted that record to be like reaching out and shaking my hand. I wanted it to cover who I was, where I was from, the age I was, first heartbreak, first crush, parents getting divorced, insecurities … that’s what that first record was. And so, I really wanted a laser focus of what this record [Unapologetically] was.”
If you are having a hard time choosing which album to purchase, perhaps I can be of some help. They are all three great albums, so why not just buy them all … You’re Welcome.
