Tyler Hubbard is set to release his second solo album, Strong, on April 12^th. Co-produced by Hubbard alongside Jordan Schmidt, the Georgia native’s 13-track album is a reflection of Hubbard’s unique ability to epitomize his passion for life and love.

The 21x No. 1 hitmaker wrote or co-wrote all of the songs on Strong. Constructed both lyrically and sonically to emote a sense of thrill and fun, the tracks range from his current Top 5 smash, “Back Then Right Now,” as well as previously released songs “Turn” and “Wish You Would.”

Tyler Hubbard continues to build on his touring and streaming success since the release of his self-titled solo debut last January. Today via EMI Nashville, Hubbard continues forging his path as a solo artist with his sophomore album Strong, further cementing his position as a staple in country music. 

LISTEN TO STRONG | HERE

Hubbard co-produced the album alongside Jordan Schmidt, and he wrote or co-wrote each of the 13 tracks. The result is a dynamic and vibrant collection of songs that showcase Hubbard’s free-spirited energy and his ability to craft songs that highlight life’s most memorable moments.

On Strong, the 21-time No. 1 hitmaker finds magic in young love on spirited tracks including “Park” and “BNA,” embraces the good times on “American Mellencamp” and “Night Like That,” and displays his passion for family and fatherhood on songs such as “‘73 Beetle” and the title track.

Album track and Hubbard’s current radio single “Back Then Right Now” is currently top 5 and climbing at Country radio.

Since releasing his RIAA Gold-certified self-titled debut album last January (1.2 billion+ global streams), Hubbard’s first single “5 Foot 9” has earned more than 553M streams and is certified RIAA 2x Platinum. His follow-up single “Dancin’ In The Country” has amassed more than 402M streams and is certified RIAA Platinum.

Hubbard will throw the first pitch at the Chicago White Sox game on Saturday (4.13), and he will perform songs from ‘Strong’ on Good Morning America on Monday (4.15) and on The Kelly Clarkson Show on Thursday (4.18). Check local listings for tune-in information.

Tyler Hubbard’s new album, Strong, drops on Friday (April 12th), and one word kept popping up while writing and recording the project.

“It kind of came organically in a funny way where we kept referring to everything, well, that’s a strong take or that’s a strong mix or man, that’s a really strong song for this next album, or that’s a strong photo or whatever,” says the Georgia native. “And as we were trying to title this project, we just kept saying that and finally, I’m just like, ‘Guys, why don’t we just call it Strong? You know, it feels like it’s overall pretty strong project. I would confidently say that I’m proud of it, and I love the heart behind the actual song and I love the depth of the word strong, so let’s just roll with that and see where it goes.’ So, it felt right.”

Tyler co-produced the project alongside Jordan Schmidt and wrote or co-wrote all 13 songs on the album, including his Top 5 hit, “Back Then Right Now.”

1. Wish You Would (Tyler Hubbard, Corey Crowder and Chris LaCorte)

Tyler is back on the road with Kane Brown on his In The Air Tour on Thursday (April 11th) in Kansas City, Missouri and on Friday (April 12th) in Rosemont, Illinois.

Tyler Hubbard is getting ready to release his second solo album, Strong, this Friday (April 12th), and he says that his album was created the opposite way as his self-titled debut solo album.

“I would definitely say this whole album was somewhat reverse engineered, you know? Created to play live, created from the live show, as opposed to create it and then figure out how to turn that into a show, right, into a set list,” says Tyler. “So, it was a lot of fun in that way, and I think that being last year was really the first time I got to start meeting my fans after putting out my debut album in January (2023). It was really a time of really getting to know my audience, getting to know my fans, seeing who’s coming to the shows, seeing who’s listening to my music. And I know I didn’t meet everybody, but I was really starting to get to know who my fans were, and so that really helped when it came to not only writing these songs but picking songs for this project.”

The Georgia native co-produced the project alongside Jordan Schmidt and wrote or co-wrote all 13 songs on the album, including his Top 5 hit, “Back Then Right Now.”

Tyler performs at the Grand Ole Opry on Tuesday (April 9th) and then is back on the road with Kane Brown on his In The Air Tour on Thursday (April 11th) in Kansas City, Missouri.

Tyler Hubbard is experiencing a full circle moment going out with Kane Brown on his In the Air Tour. Years ago when Kane was just starting out, he opened for Florida Georgia Line, and now as a solo artist, Tyler is heading out as direct support for Kane’s massive tour.

“I’ve known Kane (Brown) for a while, you know? He actually opened up for us (Florida Georgia Line) five or six years ago, seven years ago, we were one of his first tours, and I remember a fun story,” Tyler recalls. “Like one of our first shows together, I was out shooting basketball with him, just hanging out and kinda getting to know him, and I was asking him, ‘How long you been doing this? Like, how long have you been playing shows and stuff?’ He was like, ‘This is my sixth show, ever.’ I was like, ‘Dude-six? Like six?’ He was like, ‘Yeah.’ I’m like, ‘Okay buddy, well, good luck! (laughs) There’s only 30-thousand people out there, so…good luck.”

He adds, “It was incredible to watch him take on the challenge and grow a ton on that tour and now it’s full circle. Now I’m getting to open up for him and I’ve watched him play and I’m just like, ‘Wow!’ He’s really grown into something special and he’s just an awesome dude. He’s a great artist. I think he has really found himself and knows who he is and what he wants to be. It’s just cool to see, because it’s not every day that you have that story and not every day that you get to see artists kind of keep it together and be consistent and put out great music and maintain a family and do what he’s doing. So, a lot of love for Kane. I’m excited to be back out with him, and I know we’re going to have a good time.”

Tyler is out with Kane for most of trek, and his dates, which begins with the launch of the tour on Thursday (March 28th) in Charlottsville, Virginia, currently run through June 7th in Raleigh, North Carolina. He will rejoins Kane at BMO Stadium in Los Angeles on August 24th.

Jon Pardi, Chris Young, Bailey Zimmerman, Parmalee, Jackson Dean and others will also join Kane on select dates.

Tyler is currently making his way to the top of the country charts with his latest single, “Back Then Right Now,” from his upcoming album, Strong.

Multi-PLATINUM-selling hitmaker Tyler Hubbard shares “Vegas,” the latest song from his forthcoming album ‘Strong,’ which is due April 12 via EMI Nashville.

“Vegas” is a wild-at-heart take on the ever-familiar love-at-first-sight story. Written on the road with his live show in mind, the song is perhaps one of the most energetic interpretations of vulnerability — and the most memorable “I Do.”

“Vegas” follows Hubbard’s climbing radio single “Back Then Right Now,” as well as album tracks “Turn,” “Wish You Would,” and “A Lot With A Little.” Epitomizing Hubbard’s passion for life and love, ‘Strong’ embodies a distinct variety of both sonic and geographical-driven influences. It continues to exemplify the Georgia-native’s distinction as a writer and artist who has earned two solo No. 1s with 2x PLATINUM-selling “5 Foot 9” and PLATINUM-selling “Dancin’ In The Country.”

The year continues to amplify with Hubbard headlining Australia’s CMC Rocks this week. He will later support Kane Brown on his In The Air Tour starting on March 28th. For tickets and more information on Tyler Hubbard, visit tylerhubbardofficial.com.

Tyler Hubbard is currently in Australia doing press about his upcoming album, Strong, before he headlines the CMC Rocks QLD 2024 on Saturday (March 16th) at the Willowbank Raceway. He likes to take his wife and three children when he makes these treks overseas, but sometimes it’s just not feasible.

“It’s Spring Break for the kids and they’re gonna go see Hayley’s parents and all that,” says Tyler. “That trip is so busy just between the promo and the shows and stuff, that it would be a lot for the kiddos. But any time I can bring them out with me, it just makes it that much more sweet and doesn’t feel like I’m missing out as much. So, selfishly I want them to be there, but it doesn’t always make sense.”

Tyler is making his way to the Top 10 on the country charts with his latest single, “Back Then Right Now.”
