“Over and Over,” a new single from the album, is available now.
GRAMMY Award-winning Little Big Town will release their 12th studio album, It’s A Dying Art, on August 28th via MCA. Co-produced by two-time GRAMMY winner Gena Johnson and Little Big Town’s own Karen Fairchild, the record features collaborations with Ashley Monroe, Jason Isbell, and Kelsea Ballerini.
The album is available for pre-order now in multiple physical and digital configurations, including CD, vinyl and retailer-exclusive variants. LittleBigTown.com will feature limited runs of exclusive signed and special color vinyl editions. Pre-order/pre-save HERE.
With It’s A Dying Art, Little Big Town aims to lean into the spirit of human-made music by embracing imperfection, emotion, and lived experience. Shaped by more than 25 years together, the record features “Hey There Sunshine,” “The Door” featuring Jason Isbell, the “Closing Time” with Kelsea Ballerini, “It’s Coming Around,” and “The Idea."
Earlier this month, the group debuted the first offering from the upcoming album, “Hey There Sunshine” at the 61st Academy of Country Music Awards. Alongside the album announcement, the band has also released a new track from the project entitled “Over and Over,” written by Fairchild, Ashley Ray, Jonnie Simpson and Madi Yanofsky.
