Anne Wilson (@annewilsonmusic) is a PLATINUM-certified, GRAMMY-nominated artist and songwriter from Lexington, Kentucky. Not too long ago, she released a spectacular 16-track album, “REBEL.” A co-writer on every song, Wilson boldly stamps her love of Jesus, Country music, and family into one cohesive record.

Anne Wilson – “REBEL” album
“I have worked so hard on this record. I poured my heart and soul into every single song. I’m so thankful for my co-writers diving deep with me on this project and partnering with me to create these songs. This writing process was the most freeing experience I’ve ever had. I enjoyed every moment so much and will never forget that season of my life. When I think about this new album and this set of songs, all I see is the faithfulness of God. He called this little 15-year-old girl from Kentucky out of the tragic loss of her brother and has brought me on the most incredible journey. I would be nowhere without Jesus. My hope is that you all absolutely love these songs and that you feel Jesus in all of them. I pray this record impacts your life for the glory and honor of Jesus. That it brings you JOY and peace. That it inspires you to be a REBEL.” – Anne Wilson explained
Charging onto the scene three years ago with her debut single “My Jesus,” Wilson made the powerful declaration to cling firmly to her faith after finding God’s healing following the tragic loss of her brother. Now, as she remains steadfast and unwavering in her commitment to her faith-filled message, Wilson delivers a stellar album that honors two genres that share a deep-rooted history.
“REBEL” acts as a page-turning autobiography into who Wilson is at her core. She combines much-needed encouragement, vulnerability, and transparency into a perfect balance that footholds the space between the dead-end road paved in dirt and the church pew of redemption on Sunday morning. Produced by Jeff Pardo and Jonathan Smith, “REBEL” emerges as a powerful message of faith.

Wilson also joined forces with some of Christian and Country music’s biggest names on “REBEL,” tapping reigning CMA Entertainer of the Year Lainey Wilson for “Praying Woman,” GRAMMY-Award winner Chris Tomlin for “The Cross,” and the previously released with Jordan Davis, “Country Gold.”
On “Songs About Whiskey,” Wilson unashamedly walks the line of her strong faith and Country roots, resulting in a lyrical redemption that swerves typical vices of whiskey, nicotine, and one-night stands to place exclamation on her heavenly fix.
