00:00Jason Aldean, man, how are you feeling tonight at the Alharadio Awards?
00:03I'm good, man. I'm feeling good. I'm excited to be here.
00:06You know, excited to see all the other artists and different artists perform
00:10that I don't really get a chance to see a whole lot.
00:12So I'm a big Mellencamp fan, too.
00:14So I'm excited that he's getting an award tonight and honoring him.
00:18And I'm excited to be here and check that out.
00:20Well, dude, you talked about excited to see other artists.
00:22I've met so many new country artists tonight,
00:24which I think is really cool that so many people are coming up in the genre.
00:27Who are you excited about?
00:28I mean, I think country music is in a moment right now
00:33where we have a ton of new artists that are coming through.
00:36I just saw Josh Ross come through here.
00:39Ella has really had a huge year.
00:41Laney, Wilson, some of those acts, man, I think are really cool.
00:46Yeah, so it's fun to be a part of country music right now,
00:49see some of the young artists coming up and making a big splash, man.
00:53So it's good to be a part of it.
00:55And you've got a new album coming in April.
00:57So what can you tell your parents about the project?
01:00I mean, the album's coming out April 24th, I believe it is.
01:03And it's called Songs About Us.
01:05It's a 20-song album.
01:07And yeah, I remember the days we only did 10.
01:10Now we're doubling that.
01:10I was like, okay.
01:11Every album is a double album anymore.
01:14But it's a 20-song record, man.
01:16I'm really excited for people to hear it.
01:18We've kind of been dropping a few songs along the way just to get them ready.
01:21But a full album comes out into April.
01:23And I've got a tour to go along with that in the summer.
01:26And so our year's just kind of getting started right now.
01:29Well, dude, have fun out there on the tour and have fun at the show tonight, man.
01:31Absolutely.
01:32Thanks for having me.
01:33Thanks for having me.
