Hillary Scott & The Scott Family will release the album Love Remains on EMI Nashville on July 29. Scott made the announcement Monday morning (June 27) on Good Morning America.
The project was inspired after the death of Scott’s grandfather in 2011, when Scott and her family decided to record their favorite hymns. Although they planned to give the recording only to family and friends, it evolved into a full-length album.
The Lady Antebellum singer worked with producer Ricky Skaggs on the 13-track collection, drawing on traditional songs and new material. The family band also includes Scott’s parents, Lang Scott and Linda Davis, as well as her younger sister, Rylee Scott.
The album’s first single is “Thy Will.” On Good Morning America, Hillary Scott explained that the song was inspired following a miscarriage of her second pregnancy in the fall of 2015.
“The process of making this album has been not only creatively inspiring but I’ve also really been able to grow as a person,” Scott said. “We’ve had this intense concentrated amount of time as a family together, which has been so special. With all that we’ve gone through together, the highs, the lows—to be able to process all of that together, to heal together, to grieve together, to laugh, to cry, all of those things…it’s just been such a continuation of solidifying the strong foundation that we have in our family.”
