Underwood says, “At this point in my career, I feel stronger and more creative than ever. I think you can hear that in this new album. It’s emotional, it’s soulful, it’s real, and we also have some fun on there too. I hope everyone loves it as much as I have loved making it.”
The album news arrives following Underwood’s first public performance in months, which took place at the 53rd Annual Academy of Country Music Awards on Sunday night.
