Tim McGraw’s “life-affirming” album has finally made its debut.

The country megastar unveiled his latest full-length album, Standing Room Only, on Friday (August 25). The 13-track project includes a few previously-released tracks including “Standing Room Only,” “Remember Me Well” and “Hey Whiskey.” It’s a body of work that McGraw hopes will inspire listeners.

“It’s (a collection of) songs that said that there is a purpose that we’re here,” McGraw said. “There is a reason that we’re here. There is good, there is light, there (are) plenty of people out there who care, and plenty of people out there who just want the motivation to do that — including me. I can get very insular and isolated, and like it. Especially over the last three years or so, but you have to force yourself to go out there and not get lost inside your own head.”
