Country Friday came early this year — Clean Slate is officially out today. Dustin Lynch released his seventh studio album this morning via BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville, a 12-track reset the 10-time No. 1 hitmaker co-wrote seven tracks on, his team announced.

The album takes its name from the introspective title track — Lynch looking at where he’s been, what he’s learned, and where he wants to go next, with love coming into view from every angle across the track list. The standouts for your playlist: road-tested honky-tonk lead single “Made In A Bottle” (out since September), “Easy To Love,” “How You Been” featuring rising star Ashley Cooke, and “Home To You” with MC4D.

The credits run deep Nashville: Zach Crowell, Justin Ebach, Josh Thompson, Jameson Rodgers, Brent Anderson, Hunter Phelps, Ben Johnson and John Byron all share co-writes.

And Lynch isn’t waiting around — he’s playing these songs live right now. He gave fans in Shipshewana, Indiana, an early taste of Clean Slate earlier this month and his calendar runs through the fall and into 2027, including a September 30 return to the Grand Ole Opry, per show coverage.

The album follows August’s Setlist Staples – 10 #1’s, the collection of every Lynch chart-topper — a reminder of the résumé: 10 No. 1s, 12 RIAA-certified singles, four Top 5 albums, and more than 5 billion career streams. Stream Clean Slate wherever you get your music today.
