Rising Christian Country Music Artist Anne Wilson Announces Release of New Album ‘REBEL’ scheduled for April 19

Anne Wilson’s upcoming album REBEL, scheduled for release on April 19, is creating significant buzz in both the Christian and Country music scenes. Wilson, a PLATINUM-certified and GRAMMY-nominated artist, has unveiled an exciting tracklist that promises a genre-blending collection featuring collaborations with music heavyweights such as Lainey Wilson, Jordan Davis, and Chris Tomlin. This announcement comes alongside the news of Wilson’s inclusion in the Opry NextStage Class of 2024, indicating her rising status in the Country music industry.

The collaboration with Lainey Wilson on “Praying Woman,” Jordan Davis on “Country Gold,” and Chris Tomlin on “The Cross” highlights the album’s blend of Christian and Country genres. Wilson’s role as a co-writer on all 16 tracks, alongside prominent Music Row songwriters like Nicolle Galyon, Emily Weisband, Matthew West, and Trannie Anderson, underscores her deep involvement in the creative process of the album. The production by Jeff Pardo and Jonathan Smith further promises a high-quality musical experience.

Wilson’s upcoming appearance on Fox & Friends’ “Faith & Friends” series for a performance of “Strong” — a Christian radio single currently in the Top 5 — marks her morning television debut and adds to the growing anticipation for REBEL. Additionally, the release of “God & Country” and the current single “Rain In The Rearview” continue to showcase Wilson’s powerful vocals and the faith-infused Country essence that defines the album.

Recognized as a 2024 CMT Next Women of Country and a Spotify Hot Country Artist to Watch, Wilson is not only releasing new music but is also sharing it on the road as part of Scotty McCreery’s Cab In A Solo Tour and at major Christian and Country music festivals this summer. Her multifaceted artistry and unique position at the intersection of Christian and Country music genres make her one of the most exciting artists to watch in 2024.

ABOUT ANNE WILSON:

One of Nashville’s most inspiring young trailblazers, Anne Wilson, is a true “rebel” in modern music. The Lexington, Ky. native, known for her transcendent vocal and down-to-earth storytelling, recently released REBEL (The Beginning), a three-pack of songs fusing the heart of Contemporary Christian Music with the sound of Country and allowing the emerging powerhouse to innovate as her career builds momentum. Co-produced by Jeff Pardo and Jonathan Smith, the project kicks off with two singles bridging Wilson’s sonic influences.

The hurricane-force encouragement of “Rain In The Rearview” stands as Wilson’s debut Country single, while the soaring ballad “Strong” will simultaneously aim to continue the success she has earned in Contemporary Christianity. Taking the music world by storm, Wilson delivered her first public performance at 15, singing “What a Beautiful Name” at her brother’s funeral in a moving expression of faith that soon went viral.

A few short years later, her 2021 debut single “My Jesus” became a PLATINUM-certified single and hit No.1 on Billboard‘s Christian Airplay chart. Since then, she has tallied more than 880M global streams, made her Grand Ole Opry debut, and scored a GRAMMY nomination for her 2022 debut album My Jesus.

She continues to thrill live audiences, performing over 250 shows in the first two years of her career, and just wrapped her entirely sold-out headlining My Jesus Tour as she kicks off 2024 on the road with Scotty McCreery. She’s already been named a Spotify Hot Country Artist to Watch, CMT Next Women of Country, and Opry NextStage Artist in 2024, but there’s much more to come from this modern musical revolution as she prepares to unveil her genre-bending album REBEL on April 19.

Approaching her craft with a purpose and conviction that sets her apart, she declares, “I am who I am — I’m Anne Wilson. I love God, and that’s my everything, but I love Country music, too, and I can have a beautiful mix of both.”
