Celebrated as “one of country’s most iconic duos” (Texas Monthly) and the best-selling duo of all time, Brooks & Dunn have unveiled their latest project, Reboot II, via Sony Music Nashville.
A sequel to their acclaimed 2019 album Reboot, this new release builds on the original’s concept with an innovative twist: today’s most exciting artists from country music and beyond were given full creative freedom to reinterpret Brooks & Dunn’s legendary catalog.
The result is a boundary-pushing collection that both honors and reimagines the duo’s enduring legacy.
The album features 18 collaborations with artists like Lainey Wilson, Morgan Wallen, Marcus King Band, Megan Moroney, Jelly Roll, and Halestorm, among others.
Each track is a testament to Brooks & Dunn’s timeless influence, blending their signature style with the diverse artistry of their collaborators. Fans can stream Reboot II now.
Critical Acclaim
Critics are already praising the album's fresh approach:
The Tennessean notes, “Brooks & Dunn's second 'Reboot' album highlights bluesmen, rockers, and country stars…reviving classics with note-perfect yet unique renditions.”
Music Row celebrated Lainey Wilson’s standout performance on “Play Something Country,” stating, “The new diva holds her own opposite platinum-plated country vocal legend Ronnie Dunn… the track rocks just as hard as ever.”
Wide Open Country calls the album, “a blend of fun and creative freedom from two living legends.”
High-Profile Performances
To mark the release of Reboot II, Brooks & Dunn performed their iconic hit “Ain’t Nothing ’Bout You” on NBC’s TODAY on November 13.
The duo also announced an exciting live performance of “Believe” featuring Jelly Roll during the 58th Annual CMA Awards, showcasing the project’s collaborative spirit.
Redefining Legacy
Thirty-plus years into their career, Kix Brooks and Ronnie Dunn remain restless innovators. As Hall of Fame members with 20 Number One hits and a Grammy-winning catalog, they’ve long cemented their place in country music history.
But with Reboot II, they prove there’s still room to explore new creative frontiers.
Unlike its predecessor, Reboot II gives featured artists maximum freedom to reinvent Brooks & Dunn classics. Whether through the swampy soul of “Boot Scootin’ Boogie” or orchestral reinterpretations of “Neon Moon,” the album’s genre-spanning tracks—including progressive country, bluegrass, heavy metal, and ’70s-style rock—redefine the duo’s legacy for a new generation.
Brooks & Dunn’s commitment to innovation continues beyond the studio. They hold the record for the longest-running country music residency in Las Vegas and sell out arenas across North America year after year, proving their music’s universal appeal.
With Reboot II, Brooks & Dunn not only celebrate their storied past but also invite fans and artists alike to join them in reimagining what country music can be.
