Decades after leaving northern Ontario to conquer terrestrial radio airwaves, Shania Twain says she\u2019s revisiting the place and person who started it all.<\/p>\n

The Canadian country-pop star has announced her seventh studio album, \u201cLittle Miss Twain,\u201d along with its gritty lead single, \u201cDirty Rosie.\u201d<\/p>\n

Out July 24, the album is described in a release as \u201cthe most honest version of Twain to date,\u201d tracing the formative experiences that led to her becoming one of country music\u2019s biggest crossover artists.<\/p>\n

The Timmins, Ont.-raised artist says in a statement that \u201cLittle Miss Twain\u201d reflects her teen years as well as the rock and R&B music she admired at the time, \u201cbut still with that Western twang.\u201d<\/p>\n

The album carries the momentum of Twain\u2019s career comeback \u2014 she ended a 15-year hiatus by dropping new music with 2017\u2019s \u201cNow,\u201d and followed it up with 2023\u2019s \u201cQueen of Me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ahead of the release, Twain will hit the road this spring, opening for Harry Styles during his 12-night stand at London\u2019s Wembley Stadium, as well as headlining a show in Limerick city, Ireland.<\/p>\n

Built on a dive-bar country-rock groove, \u201cDirty Rosie\u201d finds a raspier-than-usual Twain warning a lover that while they can drive her crazy, and even drive her Mercedes, \u201cyou can\u2019t drive my truck.\u201d<\/p>\n

The release says Twain has never put out anything as self-referential and introspective as \u201cLittle Miss Twain.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhere I\u2019m from you don\u2019t go anywhere on a horse \u2014 you go on a snowmobile,\u201d Twain says.\u2028\u2028<\/p>\n

\u201cI was dreaming about the Western lifestyle and I was living in a very different world than where I ended up.\u201d<\/p>\n
