Re-Dunn is the fourth solo studio album by country music artist Ronnie Dunn. The album was released January 10, 2020, via LWR. The album is a 24-song project that features covers that have left an impact on Dunn, with him calling it a "passion project".[1]

Following the album's announcement in September 2019, two songs, one country and one rock, were issued each month until the release date.

Background

[edit]

Recording for the album began in 2018 at Dunn's home studio. The idea initially was planned as a rock covers project. Dunn had already recorded two dozen rock songs in 2018 while he was working on the Brooks & Dunn album Reboot; however, once that project was finished, he decided to throw in some country songs.[2] Many of the musicians that worked on the album Dunn has worked with in the past and knew of their capabilities, making the recording process more of a fun jam session.[3]

Commercial performance

[edit]

The album has sold 10,100 copies in the United States as of March 2020.[4]
