Anne Murray marks her 80th birthday with the release of Here You Are, her 33rd studio album and a gift to fans that reaches back into the vaults. The collection features 11 never-before-heard recordings captured between 1978 and 1995, a period when Murray’s voice was at its richest and most commanding.

The album was executive produced by the legendary Bob Rock and mixed by Adam Greenholtz, who carefully reimagined these rare sessions for a new era. The cover features an original Harley Brown painting first presented to Murray in 1971, tying the project back to the heart of her Canadian roots.

“Imagine my surprise and delight,” Murray recalls, “when a young fan, who first saw me perform in Las Vegas years ago when he was 15, told me that he had discovered several songs that had never been released… songs that didn’t make the cut between the years 1978 and 1995. Here are a few of them.”

Among the standouts is “Rest Easy (In My Love),” the album’s lead single, along with “Bring All Your Heartaches to Me,” originally cut for A Little Good News. There's also “Straight From the Heart,” first tracked during sessions for 1984’s Heart Over Mind. Both songs now feature brand new background vocals from Murray and her daughter Dawn, as well as fresh guitar and pedal steel contributions by her nephew Dale.

Murray’s career has long been defined by firsts. She was the first Canadian solo female artist to top the U.S. charts and earn a Gold record with her breakout single “Snowbird.” She was also the first woman to win Album of the Year at the U.S. Country Music Awards with A Little Good News. And along the way, her catalog has surpassed one billion streams and her album sales have topped 55 million worldwide.

Across the decades she has earned four Grammys, a record 26 JUNOs, three American Music Awards, three CMA Awards, and three Canadian Country Music Association Awards. Murray is a Companion of the Order of Canada, has been immortalized with a Canada Post stamp, as well as the JUNO Awards’ Lifetime Achievement Award.

Her name already appears across the Canadian Music Hall of Fame, the Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame, the Songwriters Hall of Fame, and the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Beyond the accolades, she has given back through philanthropy and the Anne Murray Centre, which she founded in 1989 as a charitable foundation and museum.
