Backroad Nation is the fifteenth[1] studio album by Australian country singer Lee Kernaghan. It was released digitally and physically in Australia on 10 May 2019 through ABC Music/Universal Music Australia. The album peaked at number 3 on the ARIA Charts.

Kernaghan describes the album as "a celebration of us, our way of life and the people who make our country great. Much of the inspiration for the songs has come from the people I've met and the places I've travelled to from Alice Springs to the Deni Ute Muster, from the mighty Pilbara region in WA to backroads QLD and everywhere in between."[3]

At the Country Music Awards of Australia of 2020, the album won Top Selling Album of the Year. At the ARIA Music Awards of 2019, the album was nominated for ARIA Award for Best Country Album. At the AIR Awards of 2020, the album was nominated for Best Independent Country Album.[4][5]
