Ballerini told the Associated Press that the new collection offers an “accurate snapshot” of her life.

“I think that people probably expect this really happy-go-lucky, love, mushy, gushy record from me. That’s not the case,” she told the AP. “And I’m really proud of that. It would have been easy to, I think, just collect the really beautiful parts of my life that I’ve dusted off and found the last couple of years. But that’s not the fullness of my experience.”

Kelsea’s last release was the 2023 EP, Rolling Up the Welcome Mat.
