George Strait will be releasing his 39th studio album, Here For A Good Time, on September 6th. The Country Music Hall of Famer co-wrote seven of the album's 11 tracks with his son Bubba and legendary songwriter Dean Dillon.
Strait co-produced the album with his long-time friend and legendary producer Tony Brown. It was recorded at Shrimpboat Sound Studio in Key West, FL - the same studio where Strait recorded his last three award-winning albums.
The title track "Here For A Good Time," written by Strait, his son Bubba Strait and songwriter Dean Dillon, is Strait's 89th career single and his second highest debut in his storied career on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. Currently at No. 16 on both the Billboard and Mediabase charts after only eight weeks. This is his highest debut since "I Saw God Today" debuted Top 20 in 2008.
Here For A Good Time includes the following tracks:
1. Love's Gonna Make It Alright Al Anderson / Chris Stapleton

Strait may have penned the lyrics "I ain't here for a long time, I'm here for a good time" in his current single but his amazing career says otherwise.
