Maren Morris has announced the release date for her anticipated fourth studio album, Dreamsicle. The 14-track LP is slated to drop on May 9, with the first single, “Carry Me Through,” slated for release on Thursday morning (March 27).
Morris has been doing a slow reveal of the new album on her newly wiped Instagram over the past few days, including a pair of brief black and white videos posted over the weekend in which she does a series of balletic moves accompanied by an instrumental piano track. Morris also posted the album’s cover image on Tuesday morning (March 25), in which she peers directly into the camera in a close-up head shot in which her left eye is obscured by a lemon perched on the lip of a glass.
Morris, 34, said in a statement emailed to fans that her follow-up to 2022’s Humble Quest is a chronicle of the “aftermath of loosening my grip on my personal and professional life.” The singer added, “I’m bad at keeping secrets… Sweeping through the pits of grief, but never staying too long, and finding the joy in knowing that at my core, I’m still who I am — and that’s pretty f—ing great.”
Last summer, after her divorce from country singer Ryan Hurd was finalized, Morris celebrated Pride month by coming out as bisexual, saying she was “happy to put the B in LGBTQ+.”
The new album will feature five pop-y songs she released in August on the Intermission EP, including “Push Me Over,” which she told Billboard last year was inspired by her trying to figure out the dynamics of queer dating. That EP also featured “Cut!” featuring Julia Michaels, as well as “I Hope I Never Fall in Love,” “Because, Of Course” and “This Is How a Woman Leaves.” In January, Morris teamed up with Michaels again on the airy pop kiss-off song “Scissors.”
