This is what you like to see.
Artists are in a crazy spot not knowing when they can play live again, but the ones putting out new music and not sitting quietly have fans extremely thankful. It goes a long way, and I’ll speak for the fans when I say we all appreciate the hell out of the folks doing that the last six months or so.
Onto the new music…
There’s great news for the Pardi Animals as Jon Pardi is joining Luke Combs as a couple artists who have recently announced deluxe versions of their incredibly successful albums – they also happen to be two of the most important country artists in the mainstream.
For Pardi, Heartache Medication‘s deluxe version will have 17 songs.
There are three brand new tracks on the album – “Bar Downtown” and “Beer Light” – and the Western Version of his current single “Ain’t Always The Cowboy,” which has already been released.
