Dustin Lynch has whipped up the anticipation for his fourth album ‘Tullahoma’ – due on January 17 – by unveiling the tracklist for the record. You can pre-order ‘Tullahoma’ here. The album will be 11 songs in length and Lynch has been working on some big hitters for the record, including outside cuts from the likes of Old Dominion’s Matt Ramsey, Dylan Schneider and the late producer busbee amongst others. In addition, Lynch has teamed up with Florida Georgia Line’s Brian Kelley, Rhett Akins, Ashley Gorley and Dallas Davidson for other songs on ‘Tullahoma’, while Lauren Alaina lends her vocal skills on Thinking ‘Bout You. Speaking about the album, Lynch said that everything is very much there for a reason and the content harks back to his upbringing and the people who made it so memorable, while also saying that despite being a Grand Ole Opry member and having six Number Ones to his name, he feels as if he’s still at the beginning of his career. “Every song on ‘Tullahoma’, there’s a reason it’s there,” Lynch said. “A lot of that points back to the people who raised me, and growing up with a lifestyle where I could go outside and have fun, explore and try new things in the great outdoors. It’s kind of about being that kid and learning all those things. “That’s my story, but I think we all can relate to the kid who’s discovering, the kid who’s figuring out love for the first time – all that good stuff. In a weird way, I feel like I’m just getting started. I feel like we’re just approaching the launching pad and I feel like we have songs that will take us to the next level.” The tracklist for ‘Tullahoma’ is: 1. Momma’s House (Dylan Schneider, Michael Lotten, Rodney Clawson, Justin Wilson 2. Dirt Road (Rhett Akins, Ben Hayslip, David Garcia) 3. Thinking ‘Bout You ft Lauren Alaina (Dustin Lynch, Andy Albert, Hunter Phelps, Will Weatherly) 4. Ridin’ Roads (Lynch, Ashley Gorley, Zach Crowell) 5. Old Country Song (Josh Miller, Bryan Simpson, Josh Jenkins) 6. This World Ain’t Yours and Mine (Matt Ramsey, Luke Laird, Rodney Clawson) 7. Country Star (Lynch, Brian Kelley, Corey Crowder, Jordan Schmidt) 8. Workin’ On You (busbee, Gorley, Akins) 9. Little Town Livin’ (Lynch, Ben Hayslip, Crowell, Akins) 10. Red Dirt, Blue Eyes (Lynch, Kyle Fishman, Dallas Davidson) 11. Good Girl (Lynch, Justin Ebach, Albert)

Jess and the Bandits have released a new song in the shape of Bulletproof, which is the first to be shared from the band’s upcoming EP ‘Riding Shotgun’. You can listen to the track here. The group – fronted by Texan vocalist Jessica Clemmon and also featuring Chris Howard, Luke Thomas, Jake Woodward and Callum Williams – have been very productive in 2019 and Bulletproof follows in the footsteps of Love Don’t Give A Damn, which was shared back in September. Bulletproof – written with Victoria Banks (Jessica Simpson, Sara Evans, Johnny Reid) and Emily Shakelton (Carly Pearce, Lauren Alaina, Cassadee Pope) – was chosen as the lead single from the upcoming EP due to the fact that it went down so well with audiences on their last UK tour, with it appearing that ‘Riding Shotgun’ will be released in the first part of 2020. Jess and the Bandits sought the production skills of Latin Grammy Award winner Femke for ‘Riding Shotgun’, who has also worked with The Adelaides and Belle Mt. The band gave continued to grow in profile in the UK, having appeared at C2C and the inaugural Long Road Festival. In addition, they have also made BBC Radio 2 playlists down the line.
