Kelly Clarkson Is One Song Away From Completing New Album
Original 'American Idol' Kelly Clarkson revealed on her Facebook page earlier this week that is she is just one song shy of finishing her fifth studio album.
Clarkson posted: "I record my last song on the 25th of this month and then we will be releasing the album." She provided a little more detail about the sonics of the album and what inspired it, writing, "This album was influenced by Prince, Tina Turner, Sheryl Crow, Radiohead and there's a little bit of a country vibe/influence on a couple of songs."
That's an eclectic mix of influences and Clarkson did not stop there. She gave a little bit of teaser info about one of the more soulful tunes: "One of my favorites on the new album is highly influenced by Aretha Franklin and Stevie Wonder. Eric Hutchinson wrote it ... The album is gonna be a great pop record! I can't wait for y'all to hear it!"
Bring it on, Kelly.
