Ronnie Dunn is the debut solo studio album from country music artist Ronnie Dunn. The album was released on June 7, 2011, via Arista Nashville. The album is Dunn's first release of music in nearly 25 years; he released three singles in the 1980s without issuing an album.
The album's lead-off single, "Bleed Red", was released to country music radio on January 31, 2011, and became a top ten hit on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. A second single, "Cost of Livin'", was scheduled to be released to radio on June 27, 2011, however, the single entered the country chart two weeks before its release, debuting at number 56 on the country chart.
Ronnie Dunn is Dunn's first solo music in 25 years and comes less than a year after his split as one-half of Brooks & Dunn. Dunn also wrote or co-wrote nine of the album's twelve tracks. "Bleed Red", the first single, was one of the three that he did not write or co-write.
Ronnie Dunn debuted at number 5 on the Billboard 200 and number one on the Top Country Albums, selling 45,000 copies in the U.S. As of August 2016, the album has sold 266,000 copies in the US.
