Country music star Riley Green keeps cooking with new single 'That's Just Me' from upcoming album
Riley Green Drops Title‑Track Single “That’s Just Me” Ahead of New Album
Country‑music fan‑favorite Riley Green is back in the spotlight with the release of the title track from his upcoming album, That’s Just Me. The single, which debuted on Thursday, arrives just weeks before the full album’s scheduled launch on September 18.
Green’s new single follows the success of his recent single “Lookout Mountain,” which generated a flurry of online buzz when it debuted earlier in the year. The new track, recorded in Nashville, explores the emotions that surface after a relationship ends—regret, longing, and the lingering question of what the former lover might be thinking. “It’s a very on‑brand story for me, just capturing the raw honesty that fans love about my music,” Green said in a brief interview with the publication.
The song was made available on all major streaming services, including Spotify, Apple Music, and Amazon Music, and was accompanied by a short lyric video that has already gathered thousands of views. The release is part of Green’s broader strategy to build anticipation for the full album, which also features a mix of upbeat tracks and reflective ballads.
Fan reactions on YouTube were swift and enthusiastic. A user commented, “Someone check that scoreboard…Riley’s cooking again.” Another left, “Beautiful tune Riley,” while a third wrote, “He just doesn’t miss. Another great hit. I’ll be having this on repeat just as much as ‘Imagine That.’” These comments underscore the artist’s growing reputation for consistently delivering hits that resonate with listeners.
Green, who first burst onto the country scene with the 2019 single “Jesus Saves,” has steadily risen in the genre’s rankings over the past few years. His style—a blend of traditional country storytelling and contemporary production—has earned him a dedicated fan base and a growing presence on streaming platforms. His recent single “Lookout Mountain,” which topped the country‑radio charts, further cemented his position as a rising star in the genre.
“Releasing That’s Just Me as a single is a way to give fans a taste of what’s to come while also showcasing the heart‑felt songwriting that’s become a hallmark of my work,” Green added. “I’m excited for people to hear the full album and see how the stories weave together.”
The full album, That’s Just Me, will be available for purchase and streaming on September 18. In addition to the title track, the album will feature several other songs that Green says were written during a period of personal reflection. The album’s release is expected to drive traffic to Green’s tour dates scheduled for late 2024, where he will perform both new material and fan favorites.
Industry analysts note that Green’s recent releases demonstrate a solid strategy of balancing radio-friendly singles with deeper tracks that showcase lyrical depth. By leading with “That’s Just Me,” Green is positioning himself to capitalize on the streaming wave while maintaining his appeal to country‑radio audiences.
For listeners who want to hear the single now, “That’s Just Me” is available on all major digital platforms. Fans are encouraged to share their thoughts and join the conversation on social media using the hashtag #RileyGreen.
