Nashville, TN — Three years in the making, packed with countless hours of writing and listening sessions, multi-platinum, global entertainer Chris Young’s brand-new album, Young Love & Saturday Nights, is now available on Sony Music Nashville. The project is 18 songs deep, his most extensive and wide-ranging work to date and perhaps a tip of the black cowboy hat to each year of his booming career…so far. Young flexes as a writer on 15 of the album’s 18 sides, is the sole producer on three songs, and shares co-producer credits with longtime creative partners, Chris DeStefano and Corey Crowder on the rest.

"His commitment to growth extends to his new album, which emanates an energized sound, while Young stretches the scope of topics fans have come to expect from his songs ... some things remained constant, such as Young’s unmistakable vocal power and his unyielding devotion to songwriting."— Billboard
“Chris Young's 'Young Love & Saturday Nights' finds him dialed in deeper to soulful vocals and rock-aided sounds ... Twenty years into a 10-year town, the Murfreesboro native is a rare local-to-global mainstream country star."— The Tennessean “On Young Love & Saturday Nights, Chris Young is at his absolute finest, perfectly walking the line between modern and traditional country ... one of country music’s strongest and most impressive voices ... He has a penchant for combining modernism with traditionalism that has made him one of the genre’s most consistent hitmakers for nearly twenty years.”— Country Swag
