Kelsea Ballerini releases her new album, ballerini on September 11th.

The new record follows her album, kelsea, which was released in March. The album featured pop country songs meant to be performed at her tour dates, which were cancelled because of the pandemic. Kelsea deconstructed those songs and recorded them again, this time with less production. 

Kelsea says, “kelsea is glitter: bold and effervescent and dreams that are boundless. She’s who I want to be. While ballerini is emotional, vulnerable, soft: observes her surroundings and chooses her words carefully. She’s who I am.”

Kelsea is slated to perform at the ACM Awards airing on September 16th. She’ll also make an appearance on The Late Late Show with James Corden on September 14th.
