Songs About Us is the upcoming twelfth studio album by American country music artist Jason Aldean. The album is scheduled to be released on April 24, 2026, via Broken Bow Records and Aldean's Macon Music. It was produced by Aldean's longtime collaborator Michael Knox.

The album is his first release of original music in three years since 2023's Highway Desperado . ^[1]

Background

On September 12, 2025, Aldean released the album's lead single, "How Far Does a Goodbye Go", which debuted in the top 20 of the Billboard Country Airplay chart. ^[2] The track has been labeled by critics as a return to form, as Aldean returns to the familiar sounds of his early career. ^[3]

Aldean officially announced the album on November 7, 2025, alongside a surprise release of three tracks: "Help You Remember", "Hard to Love You", and "Lovin' Me Too Long". ^{[4] [5]} The album also features three duets with Luke Bryan on the title track, David Lee Murphy on his self-penned "Dust on the Bottle", and Aldean's wife, Brittany, on "Easier Gone". ^{[2] [6]}

Themes

"Help You Remember" is inspired by Aldean's experience with family members with dementia and his contributions to the Alzheimer's Foundation of America (AFA). ^[4]

On the album's title, Aldean said:

"It means the world when one of my songs helps someone through a hard time—or celebrates their best moments. This album is about all of that—the highs, the lows, and everything in between. Every track started with a real story or feeling, and together we turned those experiences into music. In the end, I realized this album is about all of us. These are songs about us." ^[5]
