LARRY FLEET’S ANTICIPATED NEW ALBUM ANOTHER YEAR OLDER OUT TODAY
EXTENSIVE HEADLINE TOUR UNDERWAY, TICKETS ON-SALE NOW
NASHVILLE, T.N. — (February 13, 2026) — Acclaimed singer, songwriter and musician Larry Fleet’s anticipated new album, Another Year Older, is out today via Stellar Way Records / EMPIRE; stream/download here. Watch a live rehearsal video for the title track here and see Fleet discuss the album here.
Reflecting on the project, Fleet shares, “This one means a lot to me. This is the first time I got to self-produce my own album, and I got to use my own band, which just felt so natural. Each song tells a story, and I’m proud of every single one of ‘em. The album has a little bit of something for everybody, a little R&B flair, it’s got some country, Americana, and some folk…all wrapped up in faith, family, and working hard.”
Produced solely by Fleet, the eleven-track project, his first release with the global independent record label EMPIRE, finds him reflecting on growth, gratitude and the importance of staying grounded, further solidifying his place as a defining voice in modern country music. Ahead of the release, Fleet recently shared album tracks ‘Both Sides of The Fence‘ and ‘American Made‘, of which Entertainment Focus praises, “[it] leans fully into Fleet’s classic country sound, pairing ’90s grit with modern, arena-ready warmth.”
In celebration of the new music, Fleet is currently on his extensive Another Year Older Tour across the US, before concluding with dates across the UK and Europe. See dates below.

Praised by Holler as “one of the genre’s powerhouse male vocalists,” Fleet continues to cement himself as one of country’s most compelling and consistently authentic voices. Tennessee-born and raised, Fleet was influenced early on by Merle Haggard, Otis Redding and Willie Nelson, laying the foundation for a sound rooted in storytelling and marked by soulful vocals. A devout family man and respected songwriter (he co-wrote Morgan Wallen and Eric Church’s #1 single, ‘Man Made A Bar’), Fleet continues to build an extensive catalog of his own critically acclaimed albums, including 2019’s Workin’ Hard, 2021’s Stack of Records, 2023’s Earned It and 2025’s independently released Hard Work & Holy Water.
ABOUT LARRY FLEET:
Tennessee-born troubadour Larry Fleet grew up on a stack of records spanning Merle Haggard, Otis Redding, Willie Nelson, and Marvin Gaye. That mix shaped a sound rooted in country storytelling but unafraid to reach beyond its borders. A thoughtful songwriter with a knack for sharp one-liners, sturdy hooks, and a powerhouse voice that cuts straight to the truth, Fleet was working blue-collar jobs long before ever landing a record deal.
A devout family man and respected songwriter (including co-writing ‘Man Made A Bar’, recorded by Morgan Wallen featuring Eric Church), Fleet has built an impressive catalog: 2019’s aptly titled Workin’ Hard, 2021’s Stack of Records—a nod to the music that raised him—2023’s Earned It with the standout ‘Things I Take For Granted’, and 2025’s independently released Hard Work & Holy Water. The forthcoming title, Another Year Older, arrives this February 2026 followed by a tour.
Fleet is doing things his own way—touring globally, connecting with fans, and staying true to where he’s from while taking country music somewhere new. Saving Country Music puts it simply: “If you’re looking for the future of traditional country music, then look no further.”
