IT’S HERE! Avril has officially released her 6th studio album, “Head Above Water”! Go pick it up in stores, or wherever you buy your digital music!

Featuring a collaboration with Nicki Minaj, it is absolutely apparent that Avril has POURED her heart and soul into this record. Not only are there emotional songs like the title track and “Warrior”, young playful Avril comes out on “Souvenir”, “Goddess” and “Dumb Blonde”. From start to finish, it’s almost as if the songs tell a story and tie everything together. From going through with her battle with Lyme Disease, dealing with not having creative control all of those years ago and growing up, this record is STRONG, both melodically and vocally. We’ve never heard Avril like this before!!

I do have to say that with the first few listens, this might top “Under My Skin” as my favorite album. Although each song has a certain individuality and I honestly enjoy them all, my faves are “It Was In Me”, “Dumb Blonde”, “Bigger Wow” and “Souvenir”. Which ones are your stand out tracks?

As a lifelong Avril fan (and even as a newbie!), you’ll definitely find something for you on this record. “Head Above Water” is going to be one of those talked about albums as it shows that Avril isn’t just a bubble gum pop diva. She’s a resilient songwriter and artist that’s been put through real-life scenarios and has found a way to translate that into art. Pure art. That’s what makes her so successful. AND WE LOVE HER FOR IT!

Hope you love the record as much as I do! Happy listening!

P.S. Lyrics to all songs are available in the Lyrics section of the site.

P.P.S. Can I also just say… VOCALS. SING GIRL, SING!!!!

I’m not just saying this because it’s Avril and I’m starving for new music, but THIS IS A JAM!!! Probably one of her strongest upbeat songs. Not sure I love what Nicki brings to it, but it’ll grow on me. Either way, this will get noticed and be a radio hit!

[EDIT] ALL track previews are up on Avril’s social media. Which one do you think you’ll like the best? I’m really digging “Souvenir”! Also, “Dumb Blonde” will feature Nicki Minaj!!

Avril posted 3 new track previews to social media: “Bigger Wow”, “Warrior” and “Love Me Insane”! What do you think? If you haven’t hear them yet, head over to her Instagram page here.

Get Avril’s second single from the “Head Above Water” album, “Tell Me It’s Over” whenever you buy your music!!!

Anddddd, watch the music video below! What do you think? I love the direction that this album is going in. So modern, adult.

   

It’s finally here! Avril has released the official album cover for “Head Above Water” (February 2019). The cover features a nude Avril, wearing nothing but her guitar. GORGEOUS!! Pre-order for the album will begin December 12 and get the new bum FEBRUARY 15! Target will also have a version with 2 bonus songs!

Looks like not only are we getting “Tell Me It’s Over” the song, but according to Avril’s social media posts, we’ll get the music video on December 12 as well!

Avril just posted on social media that the second single from the upcoming album will be called “Tell Me It’s Over”. The song it out December 12.

Still no word on a release date for the new album or single (we know that the album is out in February) but Avril’s been posting photos on social media (from what I assume is album promo) as well as lyrics to what could be the second single.

“Tell me it’s over”
“If it’s really over”
“Cause it don’t feel like it’s over whenever you’re closing the door”

It was also (officially) announced that Avril’s new album will be called “Head Above Water” and will be released in February.
