Jason Aldean will release his 11th studio album, Highway Desperado, on Nov. 3.

The new project features 14 songs, including the newly-released track “Let Your Boys Be Country” as well as three songs co-written by Aldean. “Let Your Boys Be Country” was written by Jaron Boyer, Allison Veltz Cruz and Micah Wilshire. Other writers contributing to the album include David Lee Murphy, Neil Thrasher, Kelley Lovelace, Lydia Vaughn and more.

Aldean first introduced new music from the album in May with the release of the fan-appreciation anthem, “Tough Crowd,” at this year’s ACM Awards. The project also includes Aldean’s current chart-climber, “Try That In A Small Town,” which has racked up more than 120 million global streams to date.

Since making his chart debut in 2005, the Georgia native has earned the most top 10 songs for an artist on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart.
