Tyler Hubbard today (27) releases his self-titled debut solo album, alongside a new unofficial video for the song “Small Town Me,” which he wrote with Chris LaCorte. The EMI Nashville artist co-produced the set with Jordan Schmidt and wrote or co-wrote all of its 18 songs.
The album also includes “5 Foot 9,” which topped Billboard’s Country Airplay chart, has some 290 million streams worldwide and was this week certified platinum by the RIAA. The tracklist also features Hubbard’s current single “Dancin’ In The Country.”
Says the former member of Florida Georgia Line: “I’m incredibly grateful this day has come, and extremely excited for the fans to hear this album. I’m thankful to all the co-writers and my producer, Jordan Schmidt, who helped make this a reality. Most artists don’t get the chance to release a second ‘first’ album, and I’m ready for everyone to experience this music we’ve worked so hard on.”
Last night, Hubbard gave an exclusive performance from the album in New York, and took part in a Q&A, as a part of City Sessions from Amazon Music, which streamed live on the Amazon Music channel on Twitch and the Amazon Music app. Today, a special performance by the artist in front of a live studio audience will air on SiriusXM’s The Highway (channel 56), hosted by Storme Warren. The special airs at 12 noon ET and streams on the SXM App.
Next Monday (30), Hubbard will make his late-night television debut as a solo artist with a performance of “Dancin’ In The Country” on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. On January 31, Hubbard will also perform the song on Good Morning America, and in a packed schedule, he will headline a sold-out show at New York’s Bowery Ballroom the same day.
