Maren Morris is more than halfway done with her next studio album. She tells us it’s quite different from 2019’s Girl.

“It’s a really uplifting record. I think I’m in a much lighter place in my life. I think that I’ve written the most just intimate songs. My last record was very pop-leaning and I think with this one I’m sort of coming back to this Texas rootsy style. It just feels like me but a very stripped down version of me, but it’s still extremely fun and energetic, so this would be a good record to drive to, to get ready to go out for a Saturday night to or even like cook to, it kind of like hits all those marks.”
