You Hear Georgia is the seventh studio album by American rock band Blackberry Smoke, released on May 28, 2021, through 3 Legged Records, with distribution by Thirty Tigers. It was produced by Dave Cobb and includes contributions from Jamey Johnson and Warren Haynes. The album received positive reviews from critics and charted across Europe, the UK and the US.
You Hear Georgia received a score of 70 out of 100 on review aggregator Metacritic based on eight critics' reviews, indicating "generally favorable" reception. Uncut stated that "Lynyrd Skynyrd's Rickey Medlocke co-writes one song, and most others sound like someone from Skynyrd did. But the best tracks, counterintuitively, are those furthest from Blackberry Smoke's trademark boogie". Mojo felt that "deep into side two You Hear Georgia starts to drag a little as they ditch the choogle and attempt to foray into the cosmic Americana territory of My Morning Jacket".
