Army Vet Craig Morgan Drops ‘My Country’ for Veterans Day — With a Toby Keith Tribute That Hits Hard
Craig Morgan’s new 11-song album My Country is out now, released Friday, Nov. 6, 2026 via BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville — landing just in time for Veterans Day tomorrow, Nov. 11.
Morgan is a U.S. Army veteran who served from 1982 to 1997 and remains active in the Army Reserve as a Chief Warrant Officer 2, and he is a Grand Ole Opry member. The album is a patriotic celebration arriving in America’s 250th birthday year.
The album includes a cover of late friend Toby Keith’s “American Soldier,” made with the personal blessing of Keith’s family, plus new songs “I’m Country Music,” “The Will” and “Long May You Wave,” and collaborations with Jelly Roll and Lainey Wilson.
Release week was a busy one for Morgan. He performed on Fox & Friends on Nov. 6, hosted his Veterans Day 5K at the Grand Ole Opry House, and headlined Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium on Nov. 7.
