Dream Chaser, Willie Nelson's new studio album, will be released this Friday, May 29, in digital and vinyl formats. Dream Chaser is Willie Nelson's 79th solo studio album and the 156th of his career.
This new album is a collection of unreleased, reflective songs, focusing on stories and themes such as relationships, personal growth, and life on the road. Rooted in classic songwriting traditions but with a modern perspective, Dream Chaser combines intimate narratives with universal themes like perseverance, perfect timing, and clarity.
The album continues Willie Nelson's long-standing creative collaboration with producer and co-writer Buddy Cannon, with whom he has worked recurrently for the past 13 years, resulting in nearly 20 albums. They co-wrote 6 of the album's songs; half of them with Nashville songwriter Bobby Tomberlin, and one of them in collaboration with one of Willie's most prominent touring partners in 2025. Dream Chaser also comes after a year of critical acclaim for Willie, who recently received two GRAMMY nominations for his albums Last Leaf On The Tree and Oh What A Beautiful World.
