Carter Faith’s debut album Cherry Valley has arrived, and it confirms what her early singles hinted at: she is a bold new voice in country music with a style that draws on tradition while pushing into fresh territory. The album hits that sweet spot where Tammy Wynette and Nancy Sinatra meet the textures of Pet Sounds and Revolver, all filtered through Faith’s sharp storytelling and modern Nashville sensibility.

The album includes standouts fans have already embraced, from the swaggering “Sex, Drugs And Country Music” to the cutting “Grudge” and the dreamy “If I Had Never Lost My Mind….” “Bar Star,” one of the collection’s most talked-about tracks, captures a lovable troublemaker who owns the spotlight at the local honky-tonk, while the playful bonus track “Billy Bob Thornton (Worktape)” gives a glimpse into Faith’s irreverent humor and personal quirks. Together, they reveal an artist unafraid to balance vulnerability with wit.

Cherry Valley documents Faith’s journey from her North Carolina roots to her life in Nashville, touching on heartbreaks, family rifts, and nights out that shaped her perspective. She crafted the songs with longtime producer Tofer Brown over two years before recording them in 2024, distilling the highs and lows of her rise into a collection that feels both personal and universal.

Faith's career has been steadily building momentum. She has graced the Opry stage more than a dozen times, toured alongside artists like Willie Nelson, Ella Langley, and Carly Pearce, and accumulated hundreds of millions of streams. Her Aftermath EP last year, highlighted by a duet with Alison Krauss, set the stage for this moment.

With Cherry Valley and her touring calendar packed with dates alongside Little Big Town, Noah Cyrus, Marcus King, and Kelsea Ballerini, Carter Faith is no longer just a rising name. She has planted her flag with a debut album that feels like the start of a long and compelling career.
