On December 31, 2025, Brittany and Jason Aldean teased a “surprise” on his social media. He posted a photo of him with his wife in what looks like a recording studio.
“How bout a little New Year’s surprise? Head to nye.jasonaldean.com for a new music announcement. Hint: you don’t have to wait til April!,” he captioned the photo.
In November, Aldean announced his new album, Songs About Us, would be released on April 24, 2026.
Fans who went to the website found a video of Brittany and Jason revealing that they will be releasing a song together on January 9th. In addition, Jason will be dropping two other songs.
“I’ve been hearing a lot of people saying they don’t want to wait until April for new music ’til the album comes out. So, how ’bout we drop three new songs for you guys in January?” Jason said.
Brittany added, “Mark your calendar for Jnauary 9th because we might have something special coming for you.”
Jason closed the video by saying, “You guys have been asking for a duet for a while, so January 9th, three new songs including our new song ‘Easier Gone.’ Check it out!”
Brittany’s Singing Voice Was On Display In A Tribute They Filmed For Charlie Kirk
Following the death of political commentator Charlie Kirk, Brittany and Jason were very outspoken and supportive of his wife, Erika. They attended Charlie Kirk’s memorial service in Arizona and when they returned home, they posted a tribute to Kirk.
In a black and white video, the married couple sang Luke Bryan’s emotional song “Drink A Beer.” They simply captioned the video, “For Charlie ♥️”
Fans and friends commented on the video, not knowing she had such a great singing voice, but actually, she once tried to pursue a career in the music industry!
Brittany Auditioned For American Idol
Years before she was married to a country star, Brittany Aldean (then Brittany Kerr), tried out a music career of her own. She auditioned for Season 11 of American Idol in 2012.
She auditioned for judges Steven Tyler, Randy Jackson, and Jennifer Lopez, singing Joss Stone’s “Spoiled.”
Her good looks intrigued the male judges right away and her singing voice solidified it for them. Both Tyler and Jackson gave her a yes, while Lopez gave her a no, although she did call the then-NBA dancer “adorable.”
Watch her audition below.
Brittany And Jason Released Their New Duet, “Easier Gone”
As promised, Aldean released his duet with his wife, as well as two others: “What’s A Little Heartbreak,” and “Her Favorite Color.”
“Easier Gone” was co-written by Charles Kelley and Dave Haywood of Lady A, Jimmy Robbins, and Josh Kerr.
The song tells a story about a man who sees his ex walk into a bar, and is blindsided because he still isn’t over her. He even says that everything he ever felt for her came rushing back to him the second he saw her.
In the opening line, Jason sings, “I wish I didn’t know your name/ Wish you were just another stranger / So you walkin’ in this bar wouldn’t put my broken heart / In danger.”
Brittany’s voice echoed on top of Jason’s for a few lines in the verse, but the part where she really shines is singing the high harmony in the chorus.
We can’t wait to watch them perform this one live! Listen to their duet below.
