Artist
George Strait

George Strait is set to release his new album, Honky Tonk Time Machine, on Friday (March 29th). The Texas native produced his 30th studio album alongside Chuck Ainlay and wrote 8 of the 13 songs, including his current Top 20 single “Every Little Honky Tonk Bar” and a song he co-wrote with the legendary Willie Nelson, marking the first time the pair have collaborated on a song.

George says he wants to make records for as long as he can. “I love making records,” says George. “It’s fun going into the studio, the whole process of putting the record together is fun for us. So, I’ve got a great team, and I’m just gonna keep doing it as long as I can. That’s my plan anyway.”
