Jelly Roll has announced his upcoming 10th studio album “Beautifully Broken,” releasing on Oct. 11.
The album, named after his upcoming tour, will feature the singles “I Am Not Okay” and “Liar,” alongside the newly released “Get By.” ESPN has selected “Get By” as the anthem for the 2024 College Football Season. The singer, known for his philanthropic endeavors, will donate all net profits from each pre-order of the album on his website to organizations supporting individuals struggling with mental health and addiction.
“I’m looking for songs that have purpose,” he said of the album in an interview with the New York Times Magazine . “When I go to put out a song under the name Jelly Roll , I think to myself, Why? Because for the first time in my life, it has nothing to do with a financial decision. I’m well past putting out anything for money. So, now, it really is a why. Songs like ‘Winning Streak,’ that’s a why.”

Jelly Roll has been on a roll since releasing his debut country album, “Whitsitt Chapel,” in June 2023. The album peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 — his highest-charting release to date — and produced several popular songs including “Need a Favor” and “Save Me” featuring Lainey Wilson. He also claimed the new artist of the year award at the CMA Awards and won in all three of his nominated categories at the CMT Music Awards.
Next up, Jelly Roll will embark on his extensive national “Beautifully Broken” tour, starting at Salt Lake City’s Delta Center on August 27. The tour will traverse the country, concluding at Jacksonville, Florida’s Vystar Veterans Memorial Arena on November 23.
