LEANN RIMES SIGNS TO RCA (UK) Monday, June 13, 2016 4:17pm FIRST SINGLE ‘THE STORY’ AVAILABLE IN THE UK FROM FRIDAY 24TH JUNE (IMPACTING 5TH AUGUST) World renowned vocal powerhouse LeAnn Rimes has signed a worldwide deal with RCA UK. Her first single will be The Story available from Friday 24th June, impacting 5th August. The track will be taken from her 16thstudio album out later this year (global release plans incl USA to follow). The Story is an emotional and heartfelt song which captures the raw intensity of LeAnn’s musical talent. Leann said: “The Story is a song that resonates with me as WE are all a part of one collective, universal story. I fully embrace the journey I am on and have a deeper understanding of how every piece of my story serves a purpose in my evolution as a woman and an artist. This song is not only a love song but a song of self-acceptance and appreciation for life. “I am elated to have Colin (Barlow) and the family at RCA UK by my side, as we share the same vision and passion for the future. Being surrounded by fantastic, forward thinking collaborators, I've never felt so comfortable and supported in my artistry. I feel like I found a true home.” Colin Barlow, President of RCA said: “LeAnn Rimes is one of the music business’s finest singers, and it’s an absolute pleasure to welcome her to the RCA UK family.” LeAnn Rimes is an internationally acclaimed singer and ASCAP award-winning songwriter. Globally, she has sold more than 44 million units, won two Grammy® Awards; 12 Billboard Music Awards; two World Music Awards; three Academy of Country Music Awards; one Country Music Association Award and one Dove Award. At 14, Rimes won "Best New Artist” and making her the youngest recipient of a Grammy® Award. Her debut album “Blue,” celebrates the 20th anniversary of its release this year. Out of the 42 singles she has released throughout her expansive career, LeAnn’s song "How Do I Live," ranks #4 on Billboard’s “Greatest of All Time: Hot 100 Songs,” and it holds the record for being the second longest charting song ever on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. 15 of her multi-genre singles are top-10 hits, including "Can't Fight the Moonlight" which went #1 in 11 countries. www.leannrimesworld.com

I'm surprised Curb would ever let go of her. I mean she's been losing them a lot of money in recent years. But the way they fought and battled to keep her for so long, as well as how they do so with other artists, I'm surprised they let her go.

My first thought when I saw this was that it's a cover of the Brandi Carlile song--which she would s l a y. Not sure if it actually is that song or one that she wrote. I'm excited to hear the album.

Same. I even tried googling to find out more but could only find pages about her cheating story or whatever. Brandi said she's re-releasing her album next year to mark ten years but all the songs will be covered by other artists.

I'm 110% here for a pop LeAnn album. I loved everything about Twisted Angel and Whatever We Wanna. I don't think those were ever her most commercially successful albums, but (no T no shade) country radio won't play anything she puts out now anyway. So yas queen my body is ready for pop LeAnn.
Edit to add:
Implies US may get a different lead single.
Other thoughts - I would love to hear some recordings of the new versions of How Do I Live and One Way Ticket as bonus tracks or something.

Hope it's judged on the music and not who's singing it. It's a great song

It was a county fair venue. Outdoors with all general admission seating. Free entrance to the concert with fair ticket purchase for $15. Honestly, it made me feel a little sad for her to see her doing this gig. This was my 10th LeAnn concert and to see a somewhat thin fair crowd, with some people not paying attention but mingling and talking, it just didn't feel right. But she was wonderful.
