Pre-Save the genre-defying new album

About

Always Will Be, Irving’s stunningly inventive sophomore album, out April 25, 2025 via Queen Of The Castle Records, marketed and distributed by Missing Piece Records, picks up where her first album Born In A Trunk left off. After hearing the album’s reimagined version of “I’m Waiting Forever,” a song Willie Nelson had written for Irving after meeting her on the set of 1980’s Honeysuckle Rose, the country icon was inspired. Nelson reached out to his longtime friend with a proposition: Why not record another album, one entirely of his own work? “I knew she’d probably do a lot of my songs and I knew they’d be good. You know, I’m just an old hustler,” Nelson said with a laugh. Irving agreed to the offer, collaborating again with bandleader Goolis (Jules David Bartkowski) to record 10 electrifying, genre-defying—from punk rock to samba to French pop and beyond—tracks with lively collaborations from guests Louis Cato, Steve Earle, Amy Helm, Willie Nelson, Lizzie No, and Chris Pierce.
