Lukas Nelson is releasing his new solo album American Romance on June 20, 2025, his first project with Sony Music Nashville. Produced by Shooter Jennings, the album highlights Nelson’s growth as an artist, mixing his country style with his unique storytelling.

The first single, “Ain’t Done,” is out now. Nelson shares that the song came from a time of self-reflection. Inspired by George Harrison’s All Things Must Pass, it helped him realize that life changes and it’s not always for us to know what’s next. “Ain’t Done” captures the idea of pushing forward, even when things are uncertain.

The album features 12 songs that reflect Nelson’s life on the road. He shares stories about the highs and lows he’s experienced while traveling across the country. He calls the album a “love story to the country that raised me,” capturing both the good and tough times that shaped his music. With help from artists like Sierra Ferrell and Stephen Wilson Jr., American Romance blends country, rock, and Americana. It marks a new chapter in Lukas Nelson’s career, offering fans a fresh look at his music and journey.

In 2024 Nelson teamed up with Sierra Ferrell and The Travelin’ McCourys for a new version of Adele’s “Someone Like You.” In regards to this collaboration, Nelson stated “Adele to me is on the top echelon of singers and musicians in our generation. And with Sierra, I just love her voice. It’s the most incredible feeling when I hear it and I respect her musicianship so much and who she is as a person. And then The McCourys are just incredible. We just played it one time and then within an hour, they had it down. Being with these guys brings out the best in me.”
