Hardy Enlists 33 Artists For ‘Hixtape: Vol. 2’

September 9, 2021/by LB Cantrell

Expanding on the country collaboration series he started with 2019’s Hixtape: Vol. 1, Hardy has announced its second installment, as Hixtape: Vol. 2 begins rolling out this Friday (Sept. 10).

Produced by Joey Moi, Hixtape: Vol. 2 will feature 14 new tracks and 33 artists in total, with one new track will arriving each Friday through Dec. 10.

Hardy, billed as the founder of the Hixtape country collaboration series, appears on six new songs while his co-stars populate the rest.

Hixtape: Vol. 2 includes Ashland Craft, Ben Burgess, Brantley Gilbert, Brothers Osborne, Chase Rice, Chris Lane, Chris Shiflett, Colt Ford, David Lee Murphy, Dierks Bentley, Ernest, Granger Smith, Jake Owen, Jake Worthington, Jimmie Allen, Jon Pardi, Josh Thompson, Justin Moore, Lainey Wilson, Larry Fleet, Lee Brice, Marty Stuart, Matt Stell, Midland, Morgan Wallen, Randy Houser, Rhett Akins, Ronnie Dunn, Scotty McCreery, Sean Stemaly, The Cadillac Three and Travis Denning.

“I am beyond excited about this release,” says Hardy. “I think it’s really the first one that’s going to truly introduce what Hixtape is all about, how it can take on a life of its own, and just be the first original country mixtape with all different artists. I think the songs are great and everybody involved from the singers to the songwriters to the Big Loud family are some of my favorite people in the world. I’m just happy to be part of such a cool project and I have really high hopes for it.”

The rollout of Hixtape: Vol. 2 begins tomorrow (Sept. 10) with the release of the project’s first track, “Hometown Boys (feat. Matt Stell, Dierks Bentley & Hardy).”
