New York, NY (Top40 Charts) The five-time GRAMMY Award-winning legend and the best-selling female artist in country music history
Shania Twain proudly presents her eagerly awaited new album,
Queen of Me.
Fans can also shop https://officialstore.shaniatwain.com/ for signed LPs, CDs, box sets, exclusive picture discs, cassettes, and more. RUN, DON'T WALK!
Building anticipation for the SHANIA-SSANCE, the
Queen herself heralded the record with a series of fan-favorite bops, including "Waking Up Dreaming," "Last Day of Summer," and "Giddy Up!" Each track incited widespread acclaim from Rolling Stone, Billboard, Entertainment Tonight, Variety, People, Consequence, NME,
Music Week, and so many more.
Queen of Me has ALL the makings of another Shania classic. It's confident. It's catchy. It's compelling from beginning to end all powered by the kind of anthems that transformed her into a multi-generational icon. The record is a limitless expression of pop that allows it to sit comfortably next to Twain's many chart successors, enshrining it as the most upbeat, playful, and joyous of all her albums.
The album is sonically inspired by '70s and '80s funk and rock—just like the sounds she grew up with and considered her heroes. It's a departure from the past and a strident step into an ever-improving future.
The album consists of 12 new tracks. In the stand-out friendship anthem "BEST Friend," Shania affectionately gushes over her closest confidant as she emphasizes "you always take the blame and you know I'd do the same for you. No matter what, yeah I got you, and I know that you got me."
The LP represents a deep and dynamic creative statement from this iconic voice - from the energetic opener "Giddy Up!" through the empowered title track "Queen of Me," and the passionate finale "The Hardest Stone" - which was produced by Tyler Joseph (Twenty One Pilots).
With
Queen of Me, Twain proves once more that she's got as much to offer as she ever has, and that she's never going to run out of great ideas.
"Giddy up might be the "let's go girls" of 2023!" - Entertainment Tonight
