Darius Rucker's country career is spilling over into the new music he's making with his '90s rock band Hootie & the Blowfish. The group's first new album in roughly 15 years, Imperfect Circle, will feature songs penned by, among others country artists Chris Stapleton and Eric Paslay.

Hootie & the Blowfish shared their new album's track listing on Friday (Sept. 6), and, in addition to Stapleton and Paslay, Imperfect Circle also includes the work of singer-songwriters Joel Crouse, Adam Doleac and John King, as well as tunesmiths Jim Beavers, Frank Rogers and others. Also featured as a songwriter on the album is pop star Ed Sheeran.

"Those worlds are intertwining," Rucker explains to Billboard. "I think if you listen to a lot of our old records, there's so many songs on there with a country flavor, or just country songs. And when we were making the record in Nashville, so many friends who are songwriters hear you're doing a record and everybody's calling me up -- 'Hey man, can I get with you guys and write?' You never say no to those great songwriters."

Hootie & the Blowfish previously revealed that Imperfect Circle will feature Sheryl Crow on backing vocals; additionally, singer-songwriter Lucie Silvas duets with Rucker on "Wild Fire Love." A full track listing for the project is below.

Imperfect Circle is set for release on Nov. 1. Hootie & the Blowfish have been spending their summer on the road together, on their Group Therapy Tour; the trek, which began in late May, will conclude in the band's hometown, Columbia, S.C., in mid-September.
