Reba’s new single “Going Out Like That” had an incredible first week. It soared to #1 on the iTunes Country Top Songs Chart in both the US and Canada. Now, questions swirl about the new album, and no one is more excited than Reba herself, in fact she says she can’t wait for fans to hear it.
Slated for an April release, it’s stocked with a variety of emotions…As Reba describes the music, “It ranges from happy songs, to love songs, to sad songs, to crying songs.”
