Luke Bryan has announced his plans to release a deluxe version of his 2020 seventh studio album, Born Here Live Here Die Here. The new project, due out on April 9, will feature a total of six new songs.
The country star took to Facebook live on Thursday night to announce the news and perform several songs from the album for fans, including two new tracks "Country Does" and "Waves."
"It's so amazing of how much music we're able to put out as artists now because there's so many different avenues and ways that fans are streaming music, downloading music, buying music," Bryan told People in a new interview.
"When I came out with the original album of Born Here Live Here Die Here, we had already had three No. 1s off the album before we even released it. Now, we can go on and build and add new songs to the album. I look at a song like 'Waves' — which is something that I really think has the potential to be a big, big summer hit — but I've got songs that are really country songs. For fans who think the album isn't as country as they wanted, these songs tell an outdoor country story and really say who I am and where I'm at as an artist right now."
Born Here Live Here Die Here, released in August of 2020, debuted at No. 1 on Billboard's Top Country Albums chart. "Down To One is Bryan's current single from the album and fourth overall following three chart-toppers: "Knockin' Boots," "What She Wants Tonight" and "One Margarita."
