Spring has finally arrived and that means the biggest names in country music are beginning to release their big projects for this year.
It'll be hard to find many bigger this year than Luke Combs' new studio album, The Way I Am, which is released today. Alongside the momentous 22-track record, we have new singles from Ella Langley, Parker McCollum, Hudson Westbrook, Jackson Dean, Julia and so many more.
Listen along to our Best New Country playlist on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube and Amazon.
Best New Country
On the cover of this week's Best New Country playlist is Luke Combs.
North Carolina's favourite son has released an album that's built to last - 22 tracks of evocative and emotional country songwriting with some twists and turns in style and substance to match.
Our favourite track, the much anticipated 'Rethink Some Things' tops our playlist this week - you won't be able to get this out of your heads and you'll feel all the sexier for it.
Watch the Official Studio Video for 'Rethink Some Things' below:
Best New Country Song of the Week
We've been getting very excited about twenty-year-old Floridian Madden Metcalf. Mixing up a charming cocktail of beach-country romance and Wallen-influenced cool, Metcalf has dropped his debut EP Saltwater Southern today via MCA. Kinda Paradise, the opening track, is our personal favourite - let the spring sunshine we're having warm you up while this fills your ears, you won't regret it.
