Wyatt Flores Says He’s Done With His Next Record & It Will Sound Nothing Like ‘Welcome To The Plains”
Switching it up.
Wyatt Flores has some exciting news for his fans about what’s to come in this next chapter of music. And I am sure that fans greatly appreciate this information as an early Christmas gift.
After breaking out back in 2023 thanks to the continued success of his 2022 platinum single, “Please Don’t Go,” and other viral hits such as “Losing Sleep” and “Break My Bones,” the 24-year-old singer/songwriter stunned everyone upon the release of his debut album, Welcome To The Plains, last October. The record, which instantly transported you to Flores’ home in Oklahoma, proved to be one of the year’s best releases. Not only did it build upon the patented Red Dirt-inspired sound that he has been curating throughout his career, but it also contained some of the best songwriting moments of the year on stellar tracks such as the heartbreaking “Oh Susannah,” the brooding “Stillwater,” and the morbid yet hilarious “When I Die.”
Since releasing his debut album, Flores has been busy touring for his headlining tour, along with supporting 49 Winchester on the road. Earlier this fall, Flores shared a clip acknowledging that he has not released new music this year. Flores tells the unspecified crowd that he’s heard their cries for new music and noted that he’s waiting to wrap up touring for the year before recording new songs.
“I do got some new songs. I haven’t even sang these back in the States. We’ve been having fun trying them out here for y’all. I haven’t released music in over a year now. And now everyone’s starting to be like, ‘You got anything?’ And this is just proof that I do. I just gotta get off tour, so I can go record this sh*t.”
He’d then proceed to share the chorus to the new track, titled “Way I Do.”

While Flores has still not specified when fans can expect new music, during a message he shared with his top Spotify listeners as a part of this year’s Spotify Wrapped, he dropped big news that he’s done with his next record:
“Well, folks, it’s that time of year again. We’re all wrapping presents up and being around family, and I just want to say thank you for the last year of being on a whole bunch of ‘Welcome To The Plains’ tours. And watching y’all really latch onto that music means a whole lot.
By the time that you probably will get this video, I’ll have the next album done, and I’ve got to say it is nothing like ‘Welcome To The Plains.’ I’m very excited to show off what I’ve been reflecting on over the last year. Hope y’all like it.”
LET’S GO. This is big news to close out the year for Flores, and dropping this information suggests that 2026 will be a big year of music for the Oklahoma native.

Despite not releasing new music this year, Flores still had a stellar year in streams, sharing his Spotify Wrapped stats. If these are the numbers he’s getting without new music, I am sure these numbers will be blown out of the water when he shares what he’s been working on.
