If you’ve been counting, it’s been four years since Trace Adkins released his last studio album, Love Will. The “You’re Gonna Miss This” singer is back at it with a brand new album, Something’s Going On, due to drop on March 31.
Trace, who has sold over 11 million albums to date, also has something going on with “Watered Down,” the first single off the new record. While you may have to wait until March 13 to hear the single on the radio, you can listen to it here at NashCountryDaily.com and check out the lyric video.
“When I first heard ‘Watered Down’ I felt an immediate connection with what I wanted to say. A man comes to a point in his life where he begins to reflect on his past and what he’s learned and that’s what fueled this song,” Trace said in a statement. “If you’ve led the kind of life I’ve led, at some point you have to temper your vices.”
The new album, produced by Mickey Jack Cones (Joe Nichols, Dustin Lynch) contains songs written by some of Nashville’s finest songwriters, including Shane McAnally, Casey Beathard, Tyler Farr and Craig Campbell.
