Country music superstar Shania Twain releases a new single, “Life’s About to Get Good,” along with a new album.
On Monday April 24, 2017, country sweetheart Shania Twain made an appearance on NBC’s The Voice as a first-time-ever fifth judge and advisor to contestants during the popular singing competition show. Fans learned Twain’s new single, “Life’s About To Get Good,” was scheduled to hit the country airwaves in June of that year, while her first album in 15 years would follow with an expected release in September.
“Life’s About To Get Good” offers a great sneak peek at an album that looks to be more personal than Twain’s previous work. “I was at home looking out at the ocean and I said to myself, ‘Here I am stuck in this past of negativity, but it’s so beautiful out. I’m not in the mood to write a ‘feeling-sorry-for-myself’ song. You can’t have the good without the bad. And that’s what the song ended up being about,” Twain says in a press release.
The song’s debut comes during Twain’s headlining set at the Stagecoach Country Music Festival in Indio, California. One of the most prestigious country music festivals in the world, this year’s event takes place Friday, April 28 – Sunday, April 30 at Indio’s Empire Polo Club.
As the reigning Queen of Country Pop, Twain has sold more than 75 million albums worldwide, with U.S. sales topping 34.5 million. A five-time Grammy Award-winner, she claims the spot as top-selling female country artist of all time.
Twain’s albums include her platinum-selling 1993 debut Shania Twain; the Grammy Award-winning, Double Diamond-selling The Woman in Me; Come on Over, the best-selling studio album in Soundscan history by a female artist in any genre and the best-selling country album of all time with over 40 million units sold worldwide; and UP!, her third consecutive Diamond-selling album.
Twain continued to make history by becoming the first and only female to receive CMT’s Artist of a Lifetime Award in 2016. She also recently received the Icon Award at Billboard’s Women in Music ceremony.
Twain’s hits include “Any Man of Mine,” “That Don’t Impress Me Much,” “You’re Still the One,” and “Man! I Feel Like a Woman!”
