CMA and ACM-winning crossover artist Elle King will take the dive into country music with her new album, Come Get Your Wife, slated for release on Jan. 27.

Filled with the rock, soul, bluegrass and country that the hitmaker loves, the project includes a dozen tracks that run a gauntlet of styles and attitudes. The collection, co-produced by King with Ross Copperman, features her history-making duet with Miranda Lambert, “Drunk (And I Don’t Want To Go Home), plus tracks like “Bonafide,” “Out Yonder,” “Try Jesus,” and a duet with familiar pal Dierks Bentley, “Worth A Shot.”

“There’s something about how you put the pieces together,” King offers of her first true country project. “This whole album is a crazy quilt of all sorts of moments and things that might not seem to go together, but because they’re me, they do. It’s very Southern Ohio, very who we are–and very much a lot of people who are just like me, because I know they’re out there.”

King has found quite a home in the country realm, collaborating with Bentley, Lambert and Ashley McBryde, and touring with Chris Stapleton for the better part of 2022.

The Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter was recently highlighted in MusicRow’s 2022 Publisher Issue for her work and growing career as one of Nashville’s most in-demand songwriters. To read more about the issue or to purchase a copy, click here.
