PLATINUM-certified, GRAMMY-nominated artist and songwriter Anne Wilson releases Stars (Blue Hour Deluxe), available everywhere now via Capitol Christian Music Group. The expanded 17-track deluxe adds depth to her third studio album Stars, bringing fresh moments of reflection, surrender and hope to a project rooted in faith, healing and reaching for Jesus in every season.
“These songs have continued to take on new meaning since ‘Stars’ released last October, and getting to bring them to life again with new versions, incredible collaborations and ‘Me & Jesus’ has been such a gift,” shares Wilson. “My hope is that these songs encourage people and remind them that God is faithful through every high and every low. He always meets us right where we are.”
Among the deluxe album’s five new additions is “Me & Jesus,” a brand-new song born from the grief and reflection of losing a close friend. Wilson also teams up with country hitmaker Drew Baldridge for “Maker’s Mark” — a reflective look at legacy, purpose and the difference between chasing success and leaving something meaningful behind. Written by Baldridge, Allison Veltz-Cruz, Laura Veltz and Lalo Guzman, the song points to a life marked by Jesus, arriving with an all-new music video, out now.
The expanded record also features the recently released “Still Do” with Cole Swindell, which Billboard tapped as “a country-shaded song of faith and redemption,” an acoustic version of the sweeping “Carry Me” and a live version of “God Story.”
The Kentucky native will spend the summer appearing at some of Christian music’s most beloved fairs and festivals before heading to the United Kingdom for Big Church Festival and Long Road Festival. From there, she will kick off the second leg of her recently extended The STARS Tour, which adds 24 dates across the U.S. to the previously announced run. The fall leg will bring her compelling live show to cities across the West Coast, Midwest, South and more, with special guests Peter Burton and Aodhán King set to join on select dates.
