Wynonna Judd’s upcoming album, may feature vocals from a few of her touring companions. Rumored to be on the project are Trisha Yearwood and Brandi Carlile.
While speaking of Carlile’s involvement Judd stated, “We are working on a song and we don’t know if it will be on the record or not yet, Right now, Trisha [Yearwood] and I have talked about wanting to do something, There is a lot of talk and vibe about right now.”
Judd is the daughter and duo partner of the late Naomi Judd, and is currently in the middle of the second portion of a tour that has turned into a traveling memorial of her late mother. Originally the tour was meant for saying goodbye as a duo, however, Naomi died in 2022 by suicide prior to the tour’s launch.
Wynonna said of the tour, “It’s beyond my expectations, There was a moment where I literally took a step back physically because of the love and support coming at me. They were singing louder than my vocal and were taking over, and I was shocked by it. I knew that they would be great and that they would know the words, and I just didn’t expect the volume and the passion behind people singing.”
The second portion of her tour is set to end on February 25th, and Judd is expected to work on her new album after that. Of the album, Judd stated, “I’m writing songs, and just finished one called ‘Broken and Blessed,’ and it talks about being somewhere between hell and hallelujah, That’s where I’m at — I walk through it and deal with it and find meaning in it. Suicide is as deep as the ocean, as far as the depth of sadness and all these emotions, but the music continues to absolutely give me purpose. I’ve found a way to write from a very deep, personal space.”
