New Track Launches Ahead of Next Run of Underwood\u2019s REFLECTION: The Las Vegas Residency<\/p>\n

After teasing fans with a series of mysterious posts beginning the night before her birthday this past week, 7-time GRAMMY\u00ae Award winner Carrie Underwood\u2019s highly anticipated new single, \u201cGhost Story,\u201d is available today. The lyric video for the cinematic track is also available now.<\/p>\n

Written by Josh Kear, Hillary Lindsey and David Garcia and co-produced by David Garcia and Underwood, the superstar describes \u201cGhost Story\u201d as \u201ca different take on a revenge song, which is something I love to sing about. Instead of smashing headlights, this scorned lover is letting her ex know that she will continue to haunt him no matter how hard he tries to forget her.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cGhost Story\u201d is the latest collaboration between Underwood and Garcia, having co-produced her critically acclaimed 2018 release, Cry Pretty, which marked the first time Underwood produced her own album. Garcia and Underwood also co-produced Underwood\u2019s 2021 album of gospel hymns, My Savior. Underwood and Lindsey have collaborated on a string of hits such as \u201cJesus, Take the Wheel,\u201d \u201cSo Small,\u201d \u201cLast Name,\u201d \u201cSmoke Break,\u201d \u201cChurch Bells,\u201d and the now-iconic title track, \u201cCry Pretty.\u201d Kear co-wrote Underwood\u2019s signature hits, \u201cBefore He Cheats\u201d and \u201cBlown Away,\u201d and co-wrote another cinematic classic, \u201cTwo Black Cadillacs\u201d with Underwood and Lindsey.<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2018Ghost Story\u2019 is a thrilling, dramatic song that David, Hillary and Josh wrote for me,\u201d says Underwood. \u201cThey are such talented, amazing songwriters who know me so well, and from the first time I heard it I knew I had to record it. I have always loved performing songs that tell a story and inspire some kind of cinematic imagery when you hear them, and that is definitely true of \u2018Ghost Story.\u2019 It creates a mood and a vibe that is different than anything else I\u2019ve recorded before.\u201d<\/p>\n

Underwood\u2019s new single comes on the heels of winning her 16th ACM Award on March 7 \u2013 for Single of the Year with Jason Aldean for their smash hit duet, \u201cIf I Didn\u2019t Love You.\u201d The multi-week #1 \u201cIf I Didn\u2019t Love You\u201d has spent a record-setting 26 weeks in the Top 10 of Billboard Country Airplay so far, with more than 323 million global streams RTD.<\/p>\n

Underwood is nominated for two 2022 GRAMMY\u00ae Awards \u2013 for Bluegrass\/Country\/Roots Album of the Year for My Savior, and she and Aldean are nominated for Best Country Duo\/Group Performance for \u201cIf I Didn\u2019t Love You.\u201d The duo was also nominated this week for two 2022 CMT Music Awards for \u201cIf I Didn\u2019t Love You\u201d \u2013 Collaborative Video of the Year and Video of the Year, which Underwood won in 2021 for \u201cHallelujah,\u201d with John Legend. She continues to reign as the most awarded artist in CMT history with 23 total wins.<\/p>\n

On March 23, she continues her ongoing REFLECTION: The Las Vegas Residency at the Resorts World Theatre, having opened the new 5,000-capacity, world-class theatre, the first artist to grace the largest and tallest stage in Las Vegas, with six sold-out shows in December. Conceived by Underwood to celebrate some of the highlights of her stellar recording and touring career over the years, REFLECTION celebrates her greatest hits from over 15 years as an award-winning international superstar. The production brings beloved fan favorites to life in a whole new way, utilizing spectacular special effects, pyrotechnics, and state-of-the-art visual and audio technology, with Underwood joined onstage by her band, dancers, aerialists and a special virtual orchestra. $1 from every ticket sold will benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation.<\/p>\n

Underwood returns to the desert to headline the iconic Stagecoach Festival on Saturday, April 30 in Indio, Calif.<\/p>\n
