“The Only” is available now
LeAnn Rimes has released “The Only,” from her upcoming album, God’s Work album, due September 16th via EverLe Records via Thirty Tigers/The Orchard. The new soulful song features an accomplished group of GRAMMY Award-winning artists, including Ziggy Marley, Ledisi, and Ben Harper. Alongside this track release, Rimes also released an accompanying animated lyric video.
Written and produced by Rimes and her longtime collaborator and close friend/producer/songwriter Darrell Brown, the track is a welcomed feel-good, world Americana-reggae blended track that is arriving just in time for summer. The lyrics focus on the importance of being there for each other and helping others out, with the chorus emphasizing “the only way we’re gonna get there is if we hold each other’s hand.” “The Only” is a departure from LeAnn’s traditional sound, giving fans another taste of the genre-bending influences featured on her forthcoming record.
“It is an honor to have such a unique and diverse group of artists joining me on this song. Artists of like mind and heart that are also spreading a message of love in the world,” Rimes shares. “’The Only’ really is all about community and connection, so I felt inspired to create the track in community with those I deeply admire and respect.”
Rimes has also announced the second leg of her tour, The Story…So Far, in support of the album and her ongoing 25th music anniversary. The newly announced slew of dates will extend the tour from May through the end of September, giving fans across the country the opportunity to hear Rimes’ greatest hits and preview new songs.
