Willie Nelson isn’t letting anything slow him down these days, as the 86-year-old country music veteran announced the forthcoming release of what will be his 70th studio album on Friday. To be titled, First Rose of Spring, the album due out on April 24th will look to follow Nelson’s 2019 studio effort, Ride Me Back Home, which arrived last June.
To go with Friday’s announcement, Nelson also shared the title track and lead single from First Rose of Spring, which fans can watch via the official lyrics video below.

The album’s announcement on Friday closes a week where Nelson also shared the 2020 lineup for his annual Luck Reunion event at his Luck Ranch just outside of Austin, TX during the week of SXSW which will include performances from Margo Price, The Black Lips, and more.
Nelson will also wrap his ongoing run of winter tour dates on Friday night with a performance at the Walt Disney Theatre at Dr. Phillips Center for Performing Arts in Orlando, FL.
