Thomas Rhett has released seven studio albums so far and he just revealed that he is coming at us with an eighth one, likely by the end of 2026.
But, according to Rhett himself there will be a major shift for his next record.
The “Die A Happy Man” singer was a guest on Country Countdown USA where he told host Lon Helton the details of the next project. It’ll differ in at least one major way from his previous records.
“I’ve been writing for a year and a half for this project. I’m thinking on making a short record, only 10 songs, and let’s go with that,” Rhett reveals.
