Hardy shares ‘Bottomland’ video

The song appears on Country! Country!

Country rock superstar Hardy unveils the official music video for album track “Bottomland,” directed by Jay Miller and Caleb Donato. The song previews his upcoming album, Country! Country!, set for release September 26th via Big Loud.

In anticipation of a big release day, Rough Trade Below will host Hardy and fans for an album signing event in New York City on September 26th

Country! Country! takes its name literally, ranging from celebrations of his youth in the Mississippi mud—“Bottomland” being named for a specific camo pattern Hardy favors for hunting—to commentary on the state of country music at large. In sum, it’s a celebration of what makes Hardy Hardy.

Hardy is back on the Jim Bob World Tour for a slew of festivals and headline dates, culminating with his first-ever headline show at Madison Square Garden the week of Country! Country! release. Koe Wetzel, Stephen Wilson Jr., and Sikarus join as support on select dates.

The new album continues a monumental run for Hardy. He made his first-ever appearance at the Grand Ole Opry earlier this year with Metallica’s James Hetfield in the audience and smashed through the first leg of his Jim Bob World Tour. In 2024, he released his No. 1 LP Quit!!; toured North America—including his first stadium show, a headline set at CMA Fest, and many more; collaborated with heroes Fred Durst and Chad Smith; hit 16 No. 1 songs; blew past six billion career streams and so much more.
