Jason Aldean hit the stage of the Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Monday night (Jan. 29) for the live television debut of his latest single, “You Make It Easy.”
Aldean and his longtime band members cranked out a sturdy, note-perfect rendition of the song, which Aldean dropped by surprise on Friday (Jan. 26) The song is a turn in a different musical direction for Aldean, who brings a soulful, R&B-drenched vibe to the aching love ballad.
“You’re my sunshine in the darkest days / My better half, my saving grace / You make me who I wanna be / You make it easy,” Aldean sings in the chorus.

“You Make It Easy” is the first single from Aldean’s forthcoming eighth studio album, Rearview Town, which he will release in April. According to a press release, it’s his “most adventurous album yet,” drawing on some of his hometown influences including Otis Redding and the Allman Brothers Band to create “traditional country grooves, stadium-sized rock riffs and rap-style boom-thwack.”
Rearview Town is set for release on April 13, and Aldean will hit the road for his High Noon Neon Tour on May 10. The tour runs through Sept. 29, with Luke Combs and Lauren Alaina joining Aldean on the bill as support acts.
