Fresh off headlining the first weekend of Coachella 2025, Post Malone has teased the arrival of new music, and more specifically, a new country album. The chart-topping artist, known for hits like Sunflower and Circles, closed out the opening weekend on Sunday, April 13th and is set to return for another performance alongside fellow headliners Lady Gaga and Green Day. In an interview with NME ahead of his performance, Malone opened up about the nerves he felt before taking the stage, reflecting on his debut performance at Coachella’s Sahara Tent back in 2018. “I remember being so anxious,” he shared, adding that despite still feeling some nerves, he’s grown more confident as a performer over the years.

Malone revealed that he and his band have already recorded dozens of tracks in Nashville for his next album. “We’ve probably made about 35 songs,” he said. “I’m still laying down scratch vocals, but hearing the band play gets me genuinely hyped. I usually can’t stand listening to my own stuff, but this feels different.” He told Billboard ahead of his headlining set at Coachella weekend one, “I’m pretty excited for the new record already… I usually hate listening to my music, but listening to the band play, I get so excited.”

“Hopefully, we’ll have some music releasing very, very soon,” he teased, keeping fans on the edge of their seats. It’s been nearly a year since Post Malone released his sixth album, F-1 Trillion, marking his first official foray into country music. Now, Posty revealed he has no plans to step away from the genre — and that another country album is coming “very, very soon.”

Malone also painted a mini-retrospective of his past discography. “We just slowed everything down [on Twelve Carat Toothache and Austin] and that’s kind of what I was going through at that point. And [F-1] was just f—ing bitching,” he continued. “I said in an interview a while ago, ‘When I’m 30 years old, I’m gonna make a country record.’ And I made it at 29… I think finally bringing the fun back into what I was doing really showed on the record. And I think a lot of folks had fun listening to it. And we’re going to attempt to do it again. I’m excited to keep going.”

Following the momentum from his last album, F-1 Trillion, Malone is gearing up for his first stadium tour, the Big Ass World Tour, with support from Jelly Roll and Sierra Ferrell. After Coachella, Malone will kick off his US stadium tour with Jelly Roll and Sierra Ferrell, with their first stop on April 29th in Salt Lake City. The tour continues across America through July 1st, and Malone will head to Europe and the UK for a solo trek. He also serves as the U.S. ambassador for Record Store Day 2025, which takes place the day after his Coachella set. Recently, he also surprised fans by performing with a reunited Nirvana during SNL’s 50th anniversary concert.
