Ella Langley Stays Hot, Luke Combs Lines Up A Big Friday

March 16, 2026

Fresh singles are landing, a major album’s about to drop, and the top of the chart is still wearing Texas boots.

Alright y’all, here’s what’s sliding up your presets right now—songs you’re hearing in heavy rotation, plus the brand-new drops that are about to start popping up between your favorite call letters.

What’s heating up on the chart

Ella Langley is still sitting pretty at #1 with “Choosin’ Texas” on RadioWave Monitor’s Hot Country 100 (week of 03/08/2026). If it feels like it’s everywhere, that’s because it is—this one’s got that “turn it up at the red light” grip right now.
Right behind that top spot, the same chart shows Luke Combs riding strong with “Days Like These” in the Top 10 (week of 03/08/2026). When that chorus hits, you know why stations keep spinning it.

New singles you can hit play on now

Jason Aldean dropped “Don’t Tell on Me” on March 2, 2026. This one’s built for loud speakers and open highway—classic Aldean energy with a fresh edge.
Brandon Lake & Bailey Zimmerman teamed up for “Just Believe”, released March 13, 2026 (and it also went out to country radio the same day). If you like your country with a big, lift-you-up hook, this is the one to queue up.
Luke Combs added another new one to the conversation with “I Ain’t No Cowboy”, released March 13, 2026 as a promotional single for his upcoming album. This one’s already got people talking like it’s been in the setlist for years.

Release radar: albums and big dates

Luke Combs has a big one coming: The Way I Am is set for March 20, 2026. He also gave fans a 24-hour preview of unreleased tracks through his Bootleggers fan club—so the hype isn’t a rumor, it’s a full-on bonfire.

Keep it locked—these are the songs that are already living on the air, and the new ones that’ll be knocking on the door next.
