Koe Wetzel Expands New LP ‘The Night Champion’ With Five New Tracks

June 25, 2026/by Lorie Hollabaugh

Koe Wetzel has expanded his album The Night Champion just two weeks after its initial release with five new songs arriving for fans tomorrow (June 26).

The five-song expansion features added tracks “Magnet,” “Bad Decisions,” “Ronnie Ray,” “Rolling & Smoking” and “Meet You There,” which further showcase the hard-earned perspective and genre-bending approach that have earned Wetzel critical acclaim. In addition to the new album release, Wetzel’s collaboration with Corey Kent (“Rocky Mountain Low”) is currently sitting in the top 10 and climbing, and his latest single “Hurts Like You,” is already charting,

“Anyone who’s followed me for a while knows I’m not very good at calling it a night,” Wetzel shares. “With how much love the fans have been showing this album already – and knowing we had these additional songs we believe in just as much – we figured we’d go ahead and turn ’em loose while the night’s still young.”

Fans will have the chance to experience the new music live when “The Night Champion World Tour” launches its U.S. and Canadian leg on July 8 with Shane Smith & The Saints, Ole 60, Wyatt Flores, Corey Kent, Wade Bowen, Bayker Blankenship, Kolby Cooper and Logan Jahnke joining as support.
