I really wanted it to sound like if I made a rock record in the ‘90s, and then I remembered that I made my first album in 1998. Of the album, McKenna shares, “ I was trying to let my age and experience guide me through making a record I wished I’d made when I was younger. Across these ten compelling tracks, McKenna reflects on the experiences, lessons and relationships from her past 35 years. Produced by GRAMMY Award-winning producer Dave Cobb (Brandi Carlile, Jason Isbell) and recorded at Cobb’s studio in Savannah, GA, 1988 is named for the year McKenna married her husband, Gene, and serves as a love letter to her family and lifelong friendships. “ Happy Children” is the latest song unveiled from McKenna’s anticipated new album, 1988, which will be released July 21 via CN Records/Thirty Tigers (pre-order/pre-save ).Īhead of the release, McKenna has shared two additional tracks: “ The Town in Your Heart” and “ Killing Me” featuring McKenna’s longtime collaborator, Hillary Lindsey. If my heart could say just one thing, this song is what it would say.” It went through a couple different variations until Dave Cobb brought it so beautifully to life in the studio with the band.
This song was happily written with my son Chris McKenna. Reflecting on the song, McKenna shares, “ Happy Children: I heard someone say this once, ‘I wish you happy children.’ Feels like the greatest wish of all time. GRAMMY Award-winning singer, songwriter and musician Lori McKenna’s new song, “ Happy Children,” written with her son, Chris McKenna, is debuting today.
