Carrie Underwood is set to release her highly-anticipated album, Denim & Rhinestones, next Friday (June 10th, 2022).

The global superstar co-wrote 11 of the 12 tracks on Denim & Rhinestones with many of her frequent collaborators such as David Garcia, Hillary Lindsey, Josh Miller, Ashley Gorley, Josh Kear, and Chris DeStefano, who have written many of her biggest hits. She also welcomes more recent co-writers on the album, including Michael Hardy and Lydia Vaughan, the latter of whom co-wrote “If I Didn’t Love You,” Carrie’s multi-week #1 smash hit duet with Jason Aldean.

She wants fans who listen to the album to feel joyous and have a good time. “I hope when fans listen to the album, Denim & Rhinestones, that they just feel happy,” says Carrie. “When we set out to make this entire project, I walked in the writing room with my co-producer David (Garcia), and he’s like, ‘Well, what are we doing? What do you want to do?’ And I said, I just want to have fun. I feel like over the past couple of years, everybody’s been a little cooped up and just need some fun in their lives. You know, thinking about taking all of these songs on the road, I just wanted to think about as we were writing and as I was choosing songs, which ones would be great live. I love this album so much. It makes me happy. I hope they learn a little bit more about my musical influences and things that I like, because I feel like a lot of those just worked their way into this album. But, most of all, I just want them to feel happy, I want them to dance, I want them to sing and just have a good time with it.”

Denim & Rhinestones is the latest project between Carrie and David Garcia, having co-produced her critically-acclaimed 2018 release, Cry Pretty, which marked the first time she produced her own album.  Garcia and Carrie also co-produced her 2021 GRAMMY® Award-winning album of gospel hymns, My Savior.

Underwood has garnered rave reviews for REFLECTION:

“Carrie Underwood is larger than country in Las Vegas:  The country superstar wasted no time
in establishing her new show, REFLECTION, as one of the coolest productions in town,
with all the elements you might expect in a Vegas show.” (Las Vegas Magazine)

“There is a time to stay dry, and a time to get wet.  Carrie Underwood performed a cannonball at the
Theatre at Resorts World on Wednesday night.  She threw open the 5,000 capacity
theatre with a leap into the deep end.”  (Las Vegas Review-Journal)

“Throughout the evening, Underwood sparkled – her wardrobe, from head to foot, and her
powerful and stunning voice.  She literally shook the house when
‘Jesus Take the Wheel’ morphed into ‘How Great Thou Art.’”  (Las Vegas Sun)

“It’s no surprise that Underwood has now etched her name in Las Vegas entertainment history as the
opening act at the brand-new, state-of-the-art Resorts World Theatre.”  (Las Vegas Weekly)
