Today, on his 34th birthday, Jon Pardi has announced a new album, tour and single titled Heartache Medication.

Set for release on September 27, Pardi’s upcoming album, Heartache Medication, will include the album’s lead single and title track. The song was co-written by Pardi, Barry Dean and Natalie Hemby.

Jon said via a press release, "The single 'Heartache Medication' has an '80s George Strait 'Fool Hearted Memory' feel to it, and is something people can dance to. That’s something I really wanted for this album. There really are no sad songs on this record; it covers a range of subjects, but is ultimately about moving on, and having a good time.”

He posted a video of the new song to Instagram today saying, "This is #HeartacheMedication, the new single off the new album coming out in September!! Also, some more big news…headlining a tour this fall and bringing along @rileyduckman!"
