Brooks & Dunn delivered the second REBOOT installment on Friday (November 15), reimagining the duo’s career-spanning hits with some of the music industry’s latest global stars and trailblazing artists. Kix Brooks and Ronnie Dunn kicked off anticipation for REBOOT 2 with the new version of “Play Something Country” with reigning CMA Entertainer of the Year Lainey Wilson.

Since then, Brooks & Dunn offered sneak peeks on their social media channels of unreleased tracks with other artists, including Megan Moroney, Morgan Wallen and HARDY, to name a few. Dunn previously said in a statement that “the premise of the project was ‘No rules.' For this one, we purposely loosened the screws and turned ‘em loose to do whatever they wanted. We actually went way off the rails, in a good way.”

The full list of artists appearing on REBOOT 2 includes Lainey Wilson, Morgan Wallen, Marcus King Band, Megan Moroney, Warren Zeiders, Jelly Roll, Riley Green, The Cadillac Three, Halestorm, Mitchell Tenpenny, The Earls of Leicester, Jake Worthington, Hailey Whitters, Christone “Kingfish” Ingram, HARDY, ERNEST, A Thousand Horses and Corey Kent.

“This project is a lot more out of bounds,” Brooks said in a statement of the follow-up to the original REBOOT album in 2019. “Artists were going, ‘Would it be okay if we did this?’ It was like ‘Yeah! Let’s do it.’ We dealt with rock bands and blues bands and all kinds of genres, all over the place.”
