Shania Twain, almost three years after the release of her chart-topping album Queen of meis officially gearing up for its long-awaited return with all-new music.
Fans won’t have to wait much longer either, as his seventh studio album is set to arrive later this year, marking a new chapter for the global music icon.
According to The Sun, the next record is already nearing completion and has been shaped by a blend of relaxed island creativity and life on the road.
Most of the album was recorded in the Bahamas, near Shania’s picturesque coastal home, with additional sessions taking place during her tour across America last year.
While no exact release date has been set, industry chatter suggests the rollout could begin soon, especially since first singles often arrive months before a full album is released.
Work on the project began in early 2024, but was briefly paused when Shania focused on her Come On Over – All The Hits residency in Las Vegas.
With that chapter complete, she returned to the studio between shows, drawing direct inspiration from her live performances and reconnecting with audiences across the United States.
Turning 60 last summer also played a key role in her creative mindset, leaving her seemingly renewed, motivated and more connected to her art than ever.
Shania herself gave fans a glimpse of the process last May, posting a photo on Instagram as she headed into a writing session with her guitar.
She wrote: “Papped by my own husband on the way to what turned out to be a great writing session! I was lucky enough to find some time to hide away and put down the ideas that have been bouncing around in my head since the last album.
It’s funny to hear your own thoughts, feelings and daydreams come to fruition in real songs.
She also addressed the challenges of releasing music at this stage of her career, adding: “I know this world isn’t systematically built to nurture a woman my age releasing music, but I feel more in tune with myself than ever – strong, inspired and full of creative energy.”
Thank you to my fans who stay with me throughout the process, you are my inspiration.
Even though the album is confirmed for this year, fans hoping for a full tour will need a little more patience.
Aside from a handful of select shows, Shania has no major touring plans for 2026, with a larger tour expected in 2027.
For now, the focus is on the music, and for longtime listeners, that’s more than enough reason to get excited.
