Lady Antebellum's 'Golden' album may be the most anticipated new country music release of May 2013 -- or 2013 in general. The 'Downtown' hitmakers are set to release their fourth studio album on May 7, but they're just one of two superstars with new projects on that day alone. May is loaded with great new country music.

The following week, George Strait promises to top the album charts with 'Love Is Everything,' and then it's new albums from Darius Rucker and Gretchen Wilson to finish the month.
