LITTLE BIG TOWN RELEASES BRAND NEW ALBUM IT’S A DYING ART
New Album from the Multi-Platinum GRAMMY® Award-winners features collaborations with Kelsea Ballerini, Jason Isbell, and Ashley Monroe
NASHVILLE, TN. – Multi-platinum GRAMMY® Award-winning Little Big Town (Karen Fairchild, Kimberly Schlapman, Phillip Sweet, and Jimi Westbrook) has released their 12th studio album, It’s A Dying Art, today on MCA Nashville.
Co-produced by two-time GRAMMY® winner Gena Johnson (Jason Isbell, Dolly Parton, Brandi Carlile) and Little Big Town’s own Karen Fairchild, It’s A Dying Art blends intimate storytelling, emotional balladry, and a focus on human-made music shaped by imperfection and lived experience. The album features collaborations with friends including Kelsea Ballerini (“Closing Time”), Jason Isbell (“The Door”), and Ashley Monroe (“Sucker For A Sad Song”), and reflects more than 25 years of chemistry and trust within the band.
Little Big Town first previewed the project with the poignant “Hey There Sunshine”, which debuted at the 61st Academy of Country Music Awards to widespread acclaim, with The Tennessean calling it “a hopeful, healing moment” and Billboard praising it as “a timely message from one of country music’s greatest vocal groups.” They followed with “Over and Over”, which Billboard hailed as a “top-shelf post-breakup anthem,” “Sucker For A Sad Song” featuring Ashley Monroe, which Rolling Stone declared a “song you need to know,” and their recent piano-driven ballad, “We Could Have It All”. Additional standout tracks include the relationship-worn “The Door” featuring Jason Isbell, the fiery “It’s Coming Around”, and the visceral “The Idea”. The band will celebrate the album’s release with a special performance on the TODAY Plaza on September 1st as part of TODAY’s Citi Concert Series.
