In February, Jerrod Niemann promised us a new album by the fall. Well, he’s a man of his word.
Jerrod’s fourth major album, This Ride, will drop on Oct. 6. The 13-song offering features current single, “God Made a Woman,” as well as his previous single, “A Little More Love,” featuring Lee Brice. The album boasts more than a dozen top songwriters, including Ashley Gorley, Chris DeStefano, Shane McAnally, Rodney Clawson, Josh Osborne, JT Harding, Craig Wiseman, Ross Copperman, Dallas Davidson, Natalie Hemby, Jimmy Yeary, Chris Janson and more. Jerrod co-wrote two tunes, including “I Ain’t All There,” which features Diamond Rio.
“I felt like we used half of the instruments, but got twice the sound [on the album], and the notes that are there are just as important as the notes that aren’t there,” says Jerrod to Nash Country Daily. “This album, it breathes. Not only was I lucky enough to collaborate with my good buddy Lee Brice, I reached out to Diamond Rio and they came in and sang on a song too—and just brought it to a whole new level.
“This Ride represents a journey of life and music, and where it’s led me today as a man and an artist. These songs either dig up some old yesterdays or make me look forward to tomorrow. That’s why I’ve never been more excited to share This Ride.”
This Ride Track Listing & Songwriters
Justin Moore scored the seventh No. 1 single of his career as “Somebody Else Will” hit the top of both the Mediabase and Billboard Country Airplay charts this week.
“Somebody Else Will” was penned by Kelly Archer, Adam Hambrick and Tebey Ottoh and is the second single from Justin’s fourth studio album, Kinda Don’t Care, to reach No. 1. The album’s lead single, “You Look Like I Need a Drink,” hit No. 1 in October 2016.
“The feeling you get when your song hits No. 1 is unbelievable,” said Justin. “Although this is my seventh time, it is still just as exciting as ever. It is tough to get your songs played on country radio and I am so thankful to the writers, all of the stations, my promo team at the label and all of the fans who continue to support me and my music.”
Justin’s next single will be the album’s title track, “Kinda Don’t Care,” which will impact radio on Sept. 18. Check out the lyric video for “Kinda Don’t Care” below.
