Koe Wetzel Continues To Tease New Music As Billboard Pops Up In Nashville

Even MORE new music from Koe is coming soon.

After a huge 2025, which included scoring his first #1 on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart with “High Road” and capturing iHeart Radio’s #1 country song of 2025 with the track, it was clear that 2026 was primed to be a huge year for Koe Wetzel. He’d start the year by teasing a new album with the simple caption, “Ready for this new chapter to start.” The “February 28, 2016” singer would then follow that up with a brand new song to close January, the reflective “Time Goes On.”

Adding more fuel to the fire after confirming a new album was coming in the summer, Wetzel would then plot a massive, 45-city headlining tour, featuring the likes of Shane Smith & The Saints, Ole 60, Wyatt Flores, Corey Kent, Wade Bowen and more.

With a tour that extensive, the final step was to finally announce the album. Luckily for dedicated fans of the Texas rocker, he finally released his sixth studio album, The Night Champion, on June 12th.

Teaming up once again with Gabe Simon, who produced 9 Lives, The Night Champion ultimately felt like a natural progression for Wetzel, who has undoubtedly changed a lot over the past few years after getting married to Bailey Fisher and becoming a father.

As promised, the record still contained some classic Koe tracks like “Hurts Like You,” “Time Goes On” and “The Man,” while continuing his exploration into a new, R&B-esque sound on “When I’m Gone” and “I’ll Lock Up.” It would also be remiss to talk about The Night Champion’s standout, “Circus,” which serves as the centerpiece of the record, being a reflection on his time in the music industry at this point in his career.

Just two weeks after the record was released, the “Drunk Driving” singer expanded The Night Champion with five brand new tracks, including standouts such as “Ronnie Ray” and “Rolling & Smoking” and an additional two tracks with two unknown features, which have yet to be announced.

In case that wasn’t enough, it looks like Koe is getting ready to drop even more new music incredibly soon.

Earlier in the week, a billboard popped up at the Nashville Sign, a massive 36-by-38-foot digital billboard located at the intersection of Broadway, West End Avenue and 16th Avenue in Music City, with the text simply reading:

“Heartbroken? Feeling jaded? If so, call (601) 563-9895”

When you call the number, a brief snippet of yet another brand new track will automatically play, which sees Koe once again expanding out his sound with a fairly funky, 70s-inspired R&B groove.

“I wanna want ya
But you got some reservations about you, don’t ya
About you, don’t ya

And I kinda like it
How you’re damaged just like me
You don’t try to hide it
Why you trying to hide it”

As of now, it’s unknown if the new teaser is a part of the deluxe edition of The Night Champion or something else entirely. With that being said, however, it looks like we’ll be getting even more new music from Koe incredibly soon.
