Platinum-certified, Grammy-nominated artist and songwriter Anne Wilson is set to launch her new chapter with the release of three all-new tracks packaged together as “REBEL (The Beginning).” The EP will be available on September 29th and features the title track “REBEL,” Christian radio single “Strong,” and Country radio single “Rain In The Rearview.” Anne Wilson, known for fusing the Country and Christian genres, will release dual singles at Christian and Country radio with add dates of 9/29 and 10/9, respectively.
The title track “REBEL” is an anthem in tribute to the original counter-culture, celebrating those who go against the grain. “Strong” is an epic power ballad that leaves listeners feeling ready to face challenges with strength and faith. “Rain In The Rearview” is an emotional anthem about leaving the past behind and chasing a fresh start.
Anne Wilson said, “I am beyond excited to share brand new music with the world!!! After writing a ton over the past several months, this is just the beginning of a journey towards the next chapter. Getting to release a song to both Country and Christian radio is beyond a dream come true for me. These songs mean so much to me and truly describe the season of life I’ve been in this past year. I hope when people hear these three songs that they’ll feel what I feel. Heart, hope, Jesus, strength, faith, and the courage to move forward even if the path ahead is uncharted. Here’s to all that’s next!”
