New Songs on the Radio

Blake Shelton and George Strait lead a group of country music superstars who released new singles to radio in July 2013, but the month is marked with debut efforts from promising young acts.

The stars have come out in June. Four country headliners released new songs to radio this month, including Taylor Swift and Jason Aldean. In addition, fans discovered brand new music from the Eli Young Band, as the group shared their first single from an upcoming studio album.

Lady Antebellum has a new album and a new song on the radio in May 2013. The superstar trio released 'Golden' on May 7, just days after announcing 'Goodbye Town' as the followup to 'Downtown.' It's one of many surefire hits to be introduced to fans for the first time this month. Chris Young and Jana Kramer also shared new music.

The big stars are out for awards season. New songs on the radio for April 2013 made their debut at the ACM Awards on April 7. Hunter Hayes and Luke Bryan were two singers to introduce new music, while Blake Shelton played his new one for the first time at the Las Vegas awards show.

Tracks from unreleased albums seem to be the prescription for new songs on the radio in March 2013. Keep an ear to your radio this month to hear songs from Billy Currington, Justin Moore, Brad Paisley and the Band Perry. All four of these artists have revealed a new single from an upcoming project.

Any month that begins with a new song from Kenny Chesney is a good month. The superstar released 'Pirate Flag' as a new song on the radio for February 2013. It's the first from an upcoming album, and his fans are showing their approval with requests. Gretchen Wilson also revealed her new single, which comes from an album she expects to have ready by spring.

The new year began with the surprise of new music from Blake Shelton. 'Sure Be Cool if You Did' is just one of many new songs on the radio for January 2013, and it caught fans off guard -- in a good way -- as the singer hadn't mentioned planning a new album.

Typically, the last month of the year is slower than the previous 11 in terms of new music, but at least one country music supergroup didn't get the memo and still put a new song on the radio for December 2012. The latest single from Rascal Flatts is just one song released in this cold winter month.

The CMA Awards are traditionally a place for country stars to debut new songs for fans and radio, and this year's broadcast didn't disappoint. Tim McGraw, the Band Perry and Jason Aldean all performed their new singles -- but those are just a few of the new songs you can year on the radio in November 2012.

October 2012 began with a flurry of great new country songs for radio programmers to choose from. Taylor Swift has released her newest single, as have stars like Josh Turner, Hunter Hayes and Chris Young. As Christmas time moves closer and closer, expect one last effort to provide fans with reasons to buy new or existing albums.
