Wynonna Judd has announced that she will release a new album, The Hard Truth, on October 2nd, via Anti-Records.
Wyonna co-wrote the 10-track album alongside Patterson Hood of Drive-By Truckers, The War and Treaty, and Iron & Wine.
"I've spent a lifetime singing about heartbreak, healing, faith, and survival, but I've never made a record like this one," Wynonna posted on Instagram. "These songs tell the truth about where I've been, what I've lost, what I've overcome, and who I've become. This album asked me to be brave enough to tell the truth—even when my voice shook. It challenged me to let go of perfectionism and embrace the beauty of honest emotion. My hope is that when you hear these songs, you feel what I was feeling while writing and recording them. If they help someone feel seen, understood, or a little less alone, then every hard truth was worth telling."
Wyonna's husband Cactus Moser produced the album. "Being a part of this record, and helping bring these songs to life as its producer, has been the most important work I've known," Moser said. "We started with nothing but a feeling and emotion and ended up with an entire album that captures Wynonna's story with a level of honesty she's never experienced in her career. It's the kind of record that makes a difference and reminds you why music exists in the first place."
