Loretta Lynn will release her new studio album – Still Woman Enough – on Friday March 19th 2021. The record is available for pre-order now in digital, CD and vinyl here.
The country music icon’s 50th studio album – Still Woman Enough – will celebrate women in country music, from her homage to the originators – Mother Maybelle Carter and the Carter family through a new interpretation of her very first single, ‘I’m a Honky Tonk Girl,’ Loretta Lynn acknowledges her role in the continuum of American country music with a special collaboration with Reba McEntire and Carrie Underwood (“Still Woman Enough”), and duets with Margo Price (“One’s On The Way”) and Tanya Tucker (“You Ain’t Woman Enough”), sharing the musical torch with some of the brightest lights and biggest stars in contemporary country music.
“I am just so thankful to have some of my friends join me on my new album. We girl singers gotta stick together,” said Loretta Lynn. “It’s amazing how much has happened in the fifty years since ‘Coal Miner’s Daughter’ first came out and I’m extremely grateful to be given a part to play in the history of American music.”
Like its Legacy predecessors–the critically-acclaimed, Grammy-nominated Full Circle (released March 2016), White Christmas Blue (2016) and Wouldn’t It Be Great (2018), Still Woman Enough was mainly recorded at the Cash Cabin Studio in Hendersonville, Tennessee, with producers Patsy Lynn Russell and John Carter Cash.
The album premieres 13 new Loretta Lynn recordings, and will be centered around Loretta’s original compositions – from new songs like “Still Woman Enough” through fresh interpretations of classics including “I’m a Honky Tonk Girl”, “You Ain’t Woman Enough,” “My Love,” “I Wanna Be Free” (1971) and a deeply emotional “Coal Miner’s Daughter Recitation,” commemorating the 50th anniversary of the release of her signature song (October 5, 1970) and album (January 4, 1971). In mid-2020, Loretta reunited with director David McClister to collaborate on a short film version of “Coal Miner’s Daughter Recitation.” Shot on location at her ranch in Hurricane Mills, Tennessee, Loretta’s new music video includes scenes filmed in her “Butcher Holler” replica home.
Celebrating 50 years of this landmark album, Coal Miner’s Daughter will be reissued on black vinyl by MCA Nashville/UMe on February 12; preorder HERE.
