Jason Aldean just dropped a big hint about his next album. The singer, who just released “How Far Does A Goodbye Go” from the record, reveals there are three guest artists on the project.
“We got some cool guest appearances,” he tells Audacy. “I don’t wanna give anything away yet, because we haven’t really kind of let the cat out of the bag on that. But, I can tell you there’s three for sure.”
“I love working with other artists,” he adds. “And just people that I admire and look up to. And we’re able to do that on this album. Got a couple of surprises.”
This isn’t the first time Aldean has spoken about the guests on the project. Earlier this year, the 48-year-old said he was excited for fans to hear the duets.
“It’s been a cool project,” Aldean previously told Taste of Country. “A lot of songs. Couple duets in there too, so it’s gonna be pretty cool … There’s a couple of songs in the works that I know are going to be duets. Then there’s one, maybe two that we still kind of haven’t found our partner for that yet.”

Jason Aldean Praises His Fans
It’s been 20 years since Aldean’s debut “Hicktown” single was released. Aldean praises his fans, many who have been with him since the beginning, for the success he now enjoys.
“It’s just kind of crazy to see what our fan base has become,” Aldean boasts. “We had our fans that kind of grew with us over the years, and you kind of got this wave of new fans that are discovering it for the first time. Or maybe just were kids growing up when we hit the scene. Now they’re old enough to come out to the shows. and things like that. So they’re showing up and it’s been a really cool year for us.”
Aldean is grateful for his fans, but also for his band and crew, most who have also been with him for two decades.
“Everybody’s having fun,” Aldean maintains. “All the crews are glad to be here. Everybody’s working well together, and you got the common goal at night to go out and give the fans a great show. The fact that 20 years later we’re playing and we’re looking out and you’re seeing 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 year old kids coming out to the show still into what we’re doing. They love the new stuff and kind of love the old stuff.”
