Kelsea Ballerini released ballerini on Friday, September 11 via Black River Entertainment.

ballerini is a stripped-down companion album to her most recent album, kelsea, which dropped in March and peaked at No. 12 on the Billboard 200 chart.

Previously, Ballerini had said that during the lockdown period she deconstructed each song and re-recorded everything with minimal accompaniment.

“kelsea is glitter: bold and effervescent and dreams that are boundless. She’s who I want to be. While ballerini is emotional, vulnerable, soft: observes her surroundings and chooses her words carefully. She’s who I am,” Ballerini said.

She added, “The album ballerini is the result of the wonder and gets down to the heart of it. Introducing ballerini…the other side of the same story.”

Meanwhile, Ballerini has received a nomination for Female Artist of the Year at the upcoming Academy of Country Music Awards on September 16.
