Overview

• The lead single, “Don’t Let the Bastards Get You Down,” was co-written with Jeremy Ivey and Rodney Crowell, and Price says it drew inspiration from Kris Kristofferson’s words to Sinéad O’Connor.
• Guest turns include a duet with Tyler Childers on “Love Me Like You Used to Do,” with Jesse Welles featured on the protest-tinged “Don’t Wake Me Up,” according to early reviews.
• The album nods to country history with George Jones’s “I Just Don’t Give a Damn” and a Waylon Jennings closer, “Kissing You Goodbye,” suggested by Jessi Colter.
• Price frames the project as defiant and personal, citing her sobriety and renewed confidence as factors that informed the writing and tone.
• The Wild at Heart tour is set to begin on October 23 in St. Louis in support of the new release.
