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, Little Miss Twain, along with its gritty lead single, Dirty Rosie.<\/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 Little Miss Twain 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 \u2013 she ended a 15-year hiatus by dropping new music with 2017\u2019s Now, and followed it up with 2023\u2019s Queen of Me.<\/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, Dirty Rosie 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 Little Miss Twain.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhere I\u2019m from you don\u2019t go anywhere on a horse \u2013 you go on a snowmobile,\u201d Twain says.<\/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","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Open this photo in gallery: Shania Twain says that ‘Little Miss Twain’ reflects her teen years as well…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":669281,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[901,888,902,879,877,903,49,48,876,895,896,891,878,875,361,46,549,75,295,894,887,914,880,881,893,889,890,884,904,885,909,910,912,907,911,905,908,882,898,899,714,897,906,865,61,900,892,886,883,913],"class_list":["post-669280","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-alberta","tag-arts-news","tag-bc","tag-breaking-news","tag-breaking-news-video","tag-british-columbia","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-canada-news","tag-canada-sports","tag-canada-sports-news","tag-canada-trafficcanada-weather","tag-canadian-breaking-news","tag-canadian-news","tag-celebrities","tag-economy","tag-education","tag-entertainment","tag-environment","tag-federal-government","tag-foreign-news","tag-globe-and-mail","tag-globe-and-mail-breaking-news","tag-globe-and-mail-canada-news","tag-government","tag-life-news","tag-lifestyle","tag-local-news","tag-manitoba","tag-national-news","tag-new-brunswick","tag-newfoundland-and-labrador","tag-northwest-territories","tag-nova-scotia","tag-nunavut","tag-ontario","tag-pei","tag-photos","tag-political-news","tag-political-opinion","tag-politics","tag-politics-news","tag-quebec","tag-sports-news","tag-technology","tag-travel","tag-trudeau","tag-us-news","tag-world-news","tag-yukon"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/669280","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=669280"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/669280\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/669281"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=669280"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=669280"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=669280"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
