Cassadee Pope Announces New Acoustic Album, 'Rise And Shine'

Cassadee Pope has a new album on the way! The country star announced her plans to release her new acoustic album, Rise and Shine on August 7.

The new project is by far Pope's most personal to date. The Grammy-nominated singer had a hand in writing all eight songs on the collection and served as co-producer for the first time.

"Rise and Shine is a collection of songs that talk about where I’ve been and where I’m headed," Pope shared. "I wanted people to hear these in their purest form so I went with a more stripped back sound that really lets the lyrics stand out. My hope is that these songs help aid people into feeling every emotion they need to let out."

Pope plans to give fans a glimpse at what is to come on the new album with the release of two new songs, "Let Me Go" and "Built This House" on Friday (June 26). The country star also turned to social media to tell fans about a virtual release party she's having on Thursday (June 25) at 7:30PM CT.

"Since I can't celebrate the announcement of my upcoming album with you in person, I'm throwing a virtual release party this Thursday at 7:30PM CT," she wrote on Instagram. "I’ll be performing, doing an exclusive Q&A, and one on one M&Gs!! 🎟 Tickets are available on my website now!"
