Praised as "one of the genre's most beloved performers," (Men's Journal) each of the 14 songs on Young's newest album, I Didn't Come Here To Leave, "marks a triumphant return to form...proof that even in an era obsessed with trends, there's still plenty of room for timeless country storytelling delivered by one of its most distinctive voices," (Entertainment Focus). Young first teased the new project with the "romantic, wedding-worthy" (iHeartCountry) lead single, "Til The Last One Dies" currently rising on the country radio and streaming charts.
