Carrie made a cryptic announcement as she teased something coming soon

A new album for Carrie would be her first since My Savior almost exactly a year ago, her eighth studio effort and her first gospel album.

She hasn't released a single since her duet with Jason Aldean, If I Didn't Love You, which was extremely popular among her fans, her first top 20 hit since 2014, and quickly became a concert staple.
