Luke Bryan Releases New Single Country and She Knows It'

Official Announcement | Published: Mar 27, 2026 4:25 PM EDT

(MCA) Five-time Entertainer of the Year Luke Bryan has released a brand-new song today, "Country and She Knows It." Written by Josh Miller, Parker Welling, and Matt Dragstrem, and produced by Jeff Stevens, with Jody Stevens and Matt Dragstrem co-producing, the single will impact country radio on Monday, March 30, with multi-chain world premieres.

Earlier this month, Luke gave all 70,000 fans at his Houston Rodeo show a QR code for an exclusive first listen to the song. "As I gear up for touring season and summer I really wanted to focus on releasing a song that felt fun and energetic and the moment the writers sent this one I knew it was it. I have always tried to have the mindset to wake up and approach every day as a good day so being able to share that way of life through my music is something I am honestly grateful for. Can't wait to look out and see the crowds out of their seat and bonus if a little dancing is going on" says Luke.

The song is the follow-up to the recently released "Word On The Street," which is the title of his 2026 tour kicking off May 29 and 30 with back-to-back shows in Gilford, New Hampshire. Openers on the tour include Drew Baldridge, Karley Scott Collins, Lanie Gardner, Randall King, Zach John King, Shane Profitt, Raelynn, Lauren Watkins, Jake Worthington, and DJ Rock.

Tune in to watch Luke, along with fellow judges Carrie Underwood and Lionel Richie, on American Idol, live Mondays at 8:00 p.m. on ABC, streaming the next day on Hulu, and beginning March 30, the show will also stream live on Disney+ in addition to ABC in local time zones. Next Monday, the judges will take the stage to perform during the first "Songs of Faith" themed live show of the season. Luke and Lionel will open the show with a performance of "Jesus Is Love" alongside the Top 20, while Carrie will perform "How Great Thou Art" from her GRAMMY Award-winning gospel hymns album My Savior with last season's three platinum ticket winners Filo Ebid, Kolbi Jordan, and Canaan James Hill.

This spring Luke will return for a second consecutive year to play Farm Tour dates in California on May 14, 15, and 16, 2026. Since the tour's inception in 2009, he has awarded 90 college scholarships to students from farming families attending the local college or university near the tour stops.
