Which Country Music Albums Are You Looking Forward To In 2012-Reader’s Poll

Summer begins this spring, with new albums from three of country music's biggest stars, and two hot newcomers. Which album are you really looking forward to in 2012?

Rascal Flatts starts the wave of new music with ‘Changed,’ a new album featuring their hit ‘Banjo’ that will be in stores on April 3. Also coming in April, Lee Brice will release ‘Hard 2 Love’ (April 24), an album that includes the fastest-rising hit of his career in ‘Woman Like You.’

Kip Moore‘s new song ‘Somethin’ ‘Bout a Truck’ is one that’s hard to get out of your head once you hear it. The Georgia-born singer will release his debut ‘Up All Night’ on the same day as Brice. Then, two of the biggest albums of the year hit stores and digital retailers.

Carrie Underwood ends a two-and-a-half year wait for new music by releasing ‘Blown Away’ on May 1, and Kenny Chesney will debut his first album in almost two years with ‘Welcome to the Fishbowl’ on June 19. It’s likely both will debut at No. 1 and stay there for a few weeks.
