Brooks & Dunn Joins Jelly Roll, Morgan Wallen on New ‘Reboot II’ Album: Listen to the Collabs
Written by djfrosty on November 15, 2024
Country Music Hall of Famers Brooks & Dunn just released their new collaborative Reboot II album (which follows their 2019 Reboot album), again teaming with many of today’s chart-toppers to record new versions of the duo’s enduring classic ’90s country hits.
In particular, Reboot II finds Kix Brooks and Ronnie Dunn teaming with Jelly Roll in a stirring version of B&D’s hit “Believe,” while they collaborate with Morgan Wallen on a new rendition of “Neon Moon.”
“What was even more impressive was to sit down with this bunch and turn them loose to do the songs in whatever way fit their artistic vision,” Dunn previously told Billboard when the new album was first announced. “The fun part was we weren’t chasing the original recordings or arrangements or our versions. We turned them loose to do whatever they wanted to do and, I’m biased, but it was really refreshing.”

While Wallen largely hewed closely to B&D’s original recording on “Neon Moon,” Jelly Roll’s version of “Believe” further ups the ante on the song’s gospel tones, with Jelly heightening Dunn’s vocal on the chorus with some ad-libbed call-and-response singing, all backed by a powerful choir.
On the duo’s original 2019 Reboot project, Kane Brown joined Brooks & Dunn on “Believe,” while Kacey Musgraves had joined the duo on “Neon Moon.”
Brooks & Dunn’s Reboot II also features collaborations with Lainey Wilson, Riley Green, Jake Worthington, Megan Moroney and Ernest.
