Thomas Rhett has announced the plans surrounding his sophomore album! Tangled Up will drop on September 25th powered by the lead single “Crash and Burn,” which is currently climbing the charts.
“This album is something we’ve been working on for two years and musically, it really pulls from all the things I have been inspired by during that time,” says Thomas Rhett. “The title Tangled Up comes from a lyric in one of the new songs, and I think it’s a cool way to point to all the different influences that I have as an artist and a songwriter – from soul and r&b to old school country to rock and everything in between. They are all in this record!”
UPDATED:
Here is the Track Listing!
Dustin Lynch has announced a headlining tour slated for this fall/winter! He will be bringing along Chris Lane as his opener for the 35-date tour.
“Touring with Luke Bryan and Keith Urban, I’ve learned from the best and now to headline my first tour is a dream come true,” shares Lynch. “The first night can’t get here fast enough and I’m excited for fans to see what we have in store!”
Because he is still on tour with Luke Bryan, some dates cannot be announced until after he plays near those markets due to “radius clauses” in his performance contracts, so stay tuned for more dates as they are announced!
