Brantley Gilbert added five additional tracks to his "So Help Me God" album for a new deluxe edition of the record that is set to be released on April 21st by The Valory Music Co.

He had this to say, "We've always been a little outside of the box when it comes to writing and recording," shares Gilbert. "It's not necessarily something we've done on purpose, but it tends to happen because we always try to serve the song as it takes shape rather than shaping the song to serve us.

"If a song is asking for a harder edge, let's do that. If it feels a little more introspective, let's lean into that. This album intersects across a lot of different genres, and we're proud to say that it's something that happened naturally," he explains.

Gilbert cowrote all 15 tracks on the deluxe album, including his current chart-climbing single "Heaven By Then" with Blake Shelton featuring Vince Gill, giving the song perspective "from three different generations of country music,"

The album will also include "Behind The Times," cowritten with Jake Mitchell, Randy Montana and Taylor Phillips, "that expands on his current single, detailing some of the parts of rural life that can often feel as though they're quickly disappearing in this fast-paced world", according to the announcement.

The track, "'Wrote The Book Around Here' broadens the view of Brantley's hometown in previously released 'Miles Of Memories,' recounting some of his own antics as a young man and how there are some things in this world, and a small town, that never change." See the tracklisting below:
