Dierks Bentley Announces New Album “Broken Branches”

Dierks Bentley Embraces Imperfection on New Album Broken Branches, Out June 13

Dierks Bentley Announces New Album "Broken Branches"

After more than two decades in the country spotlight, Dierks Bentley is still finding new ways to surprise us. His upcoming 11th studio album, Broken Branches, drops June 13 via Capitol Records Nashville and digs deeper than ever into the soul of country music. It’s rough-hewn, heartfelt, and proudly imperfect — just like the stories it tells.

The 11-track album is now available for pre-order, and it features collaborations with John Anderson, Riley Green, Miranda Lambert, and Stephen Wilson Jr.. If that lineup doesn’t get your boots tapping, check your pulse.

Celebrating the Outliers of Country

“The country music community has a lot of broken branches in it. That’s why we’re all here,” Bentley says. “We want to do something a little bit different. This is the people’s music. It’s about doing it our own way.”

And that’s exactly what this album sounds like. Bentley spent months driving backroads around Tennessee, listening to raw demos with no names attached, choosing songs based purely on feel. The result is an album that lets its edges show — a project full of characters who live outside the lines but make the story that much better.

Produced by Jon Randall and Ross Copperman, and executive produced by Mary Hilliard Harrington, the album leans on an incredible lineup of musicians, including Charlie Worsham, Jedd Hughes, Rob McNelley, and Bryan Sutton. Bentley co-wrote just four songs, opening the door for outside writers and fresh perspectives — a bold move for an artist this deep into his career.

Highlights from Broken Branches

  • "Broken Branches" – the title track and anchor of the album, a foot-stomping tribute to life’s misfits featuring John Anderson and Riley Green
  • "Never You" feat. Miranda Lambert – a tender, banjo-backed nod to the ride-or-die people in our lives
  • "Cold Beer Can" – a new spin on a time-honored symbol
  • "Well Well Whiskey" – a return to Bentley’s bluegrass roots
  • "Something Worth Fixing" – an acoustic-driven anthem for anyone still figuring it out
  • "Jesus Loves Me" – grungy, raw, and gospel-soulful
  • "Standing in the Sun" – a sun-drenched love song
  • "For as Long as I Can Remember" – a quiet tribute to fatherhood
  • "Don't Cry for Me" – a closing track that brings it all full circle

The Takeaway

With Broken Branches, Dierks Bentley isn’t chasing perfection. He’s chasing connection. He’s embracing the flaws, celebrating the fringe, and reminding us why country music hits hardest when it’s honest. This one’s going to stick with folks.

Brett Young Announces New Album 2.0

Alright y’all, it’s time to grab your whiskey and your feelings because Brett Young just announced his next chapter. The DIAMOND-selling country crooner is dropping his fourth studio album, 2.0, on Friday, June 13 via Nashville Harbor Records & Entertainment, and let me tell you, it sounds like a heartfelt punch to the gut in the best way possible.

Brett Young Announces New Album 2.0

If you thought Brett was all about wedding songs and soft-focus sunset vibes, buckle up. 2.0 still has that signature Caliville style, but this time it's backed by a more classic country sound, relying on banjo, pedal steel, mandolin all wrapped around a more personal, vulnerable Brett than we’ve seen before.

What’s On the Record?

The 11-track album, produced by Jimmy Robbins and Dann Huff, dives deep into the things that matter like fatherhood, family, temptation, and connection. Here’s what we’re already buzzing about:

  • “Who I Do It For” feat. Lady A – a family-first anthem that’s going to hit hard for parents everywhere
  • A reimagined “In Case You Didn’t Know” feat. Hannah McFarland – yep, the one that made everyone cry in 2017
  • “Full House” – not the TV show, but a tender ode to the chaos and joy of becoming a parent
  • “Drink With You” – his latest single dropping Friday, April 11, is a steel-drenched struggle with old habits and new boundaries

Why This One Hits Different

“This album is me being more open than I’ve ever been,” Brett shares. “It’s not about just telling stories anymore. It’s about telling my story.”

And honestly? That’s what keeps fans coming back. He’s not trying to be the loudest guy in the room, he’s the one saying the things you didn’t know you needed to hear until he sings them. Pre-order the album now.
