Kellie Pickler has hung up her dancing shoes and is back to the business of making music with her upcoming fourth CD, The Woman I Am, due out Nov. 11. The CD will be her first for her new label, Black River Entertainment, and features her current single, “Little Bit Gypsy.” The collection also includes three tracks co-penned by Pickler herself, including the title track which she co-wrote with husband/songwriter Kyle Jacobs.
“I was doing an interview,” explained Pickler about the origin of the song. “And a gentleman said, ‘So, if I were to tell someone who doesn’t listen to country music and is not familiar with you to get one song off iTunes to download that kind of describes you in a nutshell, what would it be?’ I thought and then I said, ‘I don’t think I’ve written it yet, but I’m going to,’ and my husband and I wrote it that night.”
The Luke Wooten and Frank Liddell-produced album is currently available for pre-order in bundles on kelliepickler.com.
