Little Big Town Learned To ‘Trust’ Themselves On New Album ‘Nightfall’
Little Big Town have released their ninth studio album, Nightfall today (1/17).
Little Big Town’s Kimberly Schlapman says of the self-produced project. “I think we learned to trust ourselves. I don’t know that we’ve really trusted ourselves as much as we have on these last two records. That feels good. I think it’s confidence, experience, because we maybe weren’t quite ourselves in the past a few times, so we learned to, let’s just follow our gut, because it’s usually right, and if it’s not, we’ll live with it. But we do trust ourselves more now. We’re braver.”
Co-writing nine of the album’s 13 tracks, the band has already scored a 2020 Grammy nomination for Best Country Duo/Group Performance for the empowering song, “The Daughters.” The song serves as an inspirational and motivational call for young girls to pursue their passions and believe in themselves regardless of societal expectations of women.
