Brantley Gilbert opted to observe National Tattoo Day because, “as you can tell, I’ve got a few tattoos myself.”

The country star celebrated by announcing details about his next album, titled Tattoos, which is set to release on September 13, Gilbert confirmed on Wednesday morning (July 17). He also released a new collaboration from the upcoming project, “Me and My House,” featuring Struggle Jennings and Demun Jones, and revealed plans to host “the World’s Largest Album Release Party” on the album’s release date on Lower Broadway in Downtown Nashville, Tennessee. Gilbert said in his announcement on Wednesday there are “more details to follow.”

Tattoos will include a few collaborations in addition to the newly-released track with Jennings and Jones. The opening track, “Dirty Money,” features Justin Moore. Gilbert features Rascal Flatts frontman and solo artist Gary LeVox on “God Isn’t Country,” and includes his recently-released duet with Ashley Cooke, “Over When We’re Sober.” The Tattoos track list also shows “Off The Rails,” the song that inspired the name of his headlining tour.

“All my albums, they capture a chapter of my life,” Gilbert said in a press release shared by his record label. “If somebody wants to know who I am, what I’ve been through and where I stand, they can start at the beginning and listen through, and that’s why it was undeniable that Tattoos should be the title – because my tattoos do the same thing.

“People get ‘em for a lot of reasons, but for most of us, tattoos talk about our victories and losses, our struggles and the whole nine,” he continued. “I was one of those kids who had to learn the hard way. But if I would’ve listened to the advice of others, I don’t know I would have ended up where I am.”

Gilbert’s latest full-length album is So Help Me God, a project that initially released in 2022 with a deluxe edition that followed last year. That album also included a few star-studded collaborations, including with Blake Shelton, Vince Gill, Jason Aldean, Jelly Roll, HARDY and late country legend Toby Keith. Gilbert’s new music adds to a growing list of career-spanning hits, including “Bottoms Up,” “You Don’t Know Her Like I Do,” “One Hell Of An Amen,” “Country Music Be Country Wide,” “The Weekend” and others.

“I believe that all of us are the kings and queens of our own castle, and I would never in a million years tell somebody how to run their home,” Gilbert said in the press release of his newly-debuted collaboration. “It’s just about sharing how we run ours, what home is to us. I think it’s a song people won’t just relate to; I think it’s a song we need.”
