Jason Aldean

Jason Aldean is officially heading back to Australia, and we couldn’t be more hyped. The Full Throttle World Tour recently added major Australian dates, bringing one of country music’s biggest live acts to stages across the country in 2026.

Part of the buzz around this visit is the inclusion of Sunburnt Country performances, a brand new festival that’s bringing the goods with acts like Aldean, Corey Kent, Brad Cox, Dear Tommie and Y.O.G.A.

Aldean’s Australian headline shows aren’t just another stop on the tour map; they feel like a bit of a homecoming, especially considering it’s been 10 years since we’ve last seen him down under. Over the past decade, Aussie crowds have embraced his mix of gritty storytelling and heavy guitars.

For fans who grew up on Aldean’s anthems or only recently discovered him through radio and streaming hits, these shows are a chance to experience the energy up close.

10 Jason Aldean Hits We Need On The Aussie Tour Setlist

10. Whiskey Drink

This one already did the numbers in Australia, Whiskey Drink was the 39th biggest song on Australian country radio in 2025 so it would be criminal to not play this one on the tour. The beauty of the track is it would fit anywhere in the set. Aussie country radio loved it, and playing it live just makes sense.

9. Dirt Road Anthem

Dirt Road Anthem is muscle memory at this point. The second it starts, the crowd goes feral and everyone knows every word. Dirt Road Anthem is that crossover classic that still hits no matter how many times you’ve heard it - and yes, it absolutely goes off live. We’re confident this will be in the set list but only time will tell.

8. Burnin’ It Down

This is where the show could get a little dangerous. Burnin’ It Down has that late-night sexy sort of energy. It’s a little slower in tempo and has the potential to pull the crowd in before the party ramps right back up.

7. Lights Come On

If Aldean doesn’t open with this, we will riot. The lyric “Aldean and the boys about to blow it up” is basically a built-in intro, and the song flips the switch instantly. Zero warm-up. Straight into it. It needs to happen.

6. Trouble With A Heartbreak

Trouble With A Heartbreak is a song for anyone who’s been emotionally fine, but also absolutely emotionally not. It’s a modern Aldean hit, dramatic and it hits harder live when you’re screaming the lyrics with strangers who have been through it too.

5. My Kinda Party

This is where things officially get kicked up a notch. My Kinda Party turns the venue into a collective full-scale party: beers up, voices gone, no thoughts just vibes. If this isn’t played, the night simply didn’t happen.

4. Easier Gone (feat. Brittany Aldean)

We don’t know if Brittany Aldean, Jason’s wife, will be in Australia for the tour, but if she is… We need to hear this live with a cameo from Brittany herself. Easier Gone is the first time the pair have released a track together and it’s an instant favourite.

3. When She Says Baby

This song marked a bit of turning point for Aldean. When She Says Baby leaned into a smoother, sexier sound but fans connected with it instantly. It’s a little flirty, a little sexy and a was huge moment in his catalogue. We think this would be a nice little switch up in an Aussie setlist.

2. Amarillo Sky

Cue the phone lights. Amarillo Sky would be the emotional core of the set, it’s the ultimate throwback that reminds you why country music hits the way it does. With a career this deep, those early songs matter, and this one delivers the storytelling, heart, and emotions that take the whole crowd with them.

1. She’s Country

This is the peak. The closer. The encore. The moment where everything goes off and sends everyone home buzzing. She’s Country is loud, confident, and pure Aldean energy. It’s not an Aldean concert if this tune doesn’t make an appearance.

Honourable mention: Hicktown

You can’t talk about Aldean classics without tipping your hat to Hicktown. Pure party anthem energy, it’s the song that cemented him as a Nashville mainstay and reminds everyone why the man became a headliner. As soon as that fiddle comes in, all bets are off. This one would be for the OG fans who’ve been riding with him from day one.
