Kelsea Ballerini and Dan + Shay will perform during Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve on Dec. 31.

Bluegrass outfit the SteelDrivers will release a brand-new album in 2020. Titled Bad for You, the band's fifth full-length record is due out on Feb. 7 via Rounder Records. The 11-track project is the follow-up to 2015's Grammy-winning The Muscle Shoals Recordings, and is the first SteelDrivers record to feature vocals and guitars from new member Kelvin Damrell, who joined the band last year. Fans will have plenty of opportunities to hear the new tunes live in 2020, too: The Steeldrivers have a pretty packed touring schedule through June, with stops planned in Tennessee, Texas, North Carolina, Virginia and more states. Check out the band's website for more details on dates and tickets.
