Once artists like Brooks & Dunn hit the Country Music Hall of Fame, folks don’t expect much in the way of new ideas. But Kix Brooks and Ronnie Dunn have always been the restless type. Out November 15 via Sony Music Nashville, REBOOT II is the sequel to their 2019 album and follows the same format; except this time, a brand new group of artists were given maximum creative freedom. Introducing a fresh concept with REBOOT, the duo gave today’s most engaging artists in and out of country music the near-impossible task of reimagining an iconic Brooks & Dunn song to fit their own tastes and style. The result highlighted just how alive Brooks & Dunn’s influence is across the musical scene—and how versatile their songwriting really was.

With styles ranging from progressive country and classic bluegrass to heavy metal, orchestral pop, and beyond, the very fabric of songs most country fans know by heart was transformed. Whether it was ‘90s grunge, ‘70s style studio rock, or swampy soul, the duo encouraged each artist to throw out the playbook. REBOOT II’s 18 tracks include reinterpreted hits such as “Neon Moon,” “Boot Scootin’ Boogie,” “Play Something Country,” and “Believe,” resulting in a dynamic and eclectic collection that spans genres and generations, with a track list that includes Lainey Wilson, Morgan Wallen, Jelly Roll and many others.

Now thirty-plus years into their career, Kix Brooks and Ronnie Dunn long ago dialed in their generation-defining sound and style. As the best-selling duo of all time, their yin-and-yang country-rock blend has earned them 20 Number Ones—plenty of material to fill stadium-rocking set lists. And with a Grammy-winning, course-of-history-shifting catalog written mostly by themselves, they could rest easy knowing without doubt they left a permanent mark on the American songbook. Brooks & Dunn continue to break records, tallying the longest-running country music residency in Las Vegas, and criss-cross North America year after year on their sold-out tours.
