The multiple-time Academy of Country Music, Country Music Association and Grammy-winning, multi-platinum album-selling and 2022 Country Music Hall of Fame-inducted Kentucky-born tandem's classics including "Grandpa (Tell Me 'Bout The Good Old Days)," "Mama He's Crazy" and "Why Not Me" are reimagined by artists including Wynonna herself (who pairs with Trisha Yearwood for 1986's "Cry Myself To Sleep") and the quartet of Reba McEntire, Carly Pearce, Jennifer Nettles, Gabby Barrett singing "Girls Night Out."

Also, Gwen Stefani and her husband Blake Shelton pair for "Love Is Alive," while The Mavericks' lead vocalist Raul Malo joins Carl Perkins on "Let Me Tell You About Love," emerging superstar Lainey Wilson sings with her hero Dolly Parton ("Mama He's Crazy"), plus the surprising soul tandem of country and rock chart-topper Jelly Roll alongside R&B-to-country crossover performer K. Michelle with legendary gospel act The Fisk Jubilee Singers collaborating for 1990's "Love Can Build A Bridge."

“To have all of these artists, most of which are my friends, come together and lend their voices and artistry to reimagine these songs is so special. These songs are so timeless and I am so excited for them to live on for generations to come," stated Wynonna Judd in a press release.

“To all of you who listen to this music, I wish you could have been with us in the studio when we recorded these songs. There was joy, passion, and some poignant moments in re-recording these Judd songs that are impossible to describe. I hope you enjoy this record as much as we enjoyed making it,” said The Judds' original producer and six-time Grammy award winner Brent Maher.

“Renee Bell and I were thrilled to be part of A Tribute to the Judds as Executive Producers. After my signing of The Judds in 1983 and Wynonna going to MCA when Renee was director of A&R, it was special reunion for all of us,” added Country Music Hall of Fame-inducted record executive Joe Galante.

“With Brent Maher at the helm of producing all of the timeless Judds’ music we are honoring, it was the perfect combination. We couldn’t be more excited about the incredible artists that have brought their own styles to these great songs.”

The release will also feature a yet-to-be-entirely formalized partnership with the National Alliance of Mental Illness (NAMI) in honor of Naomi Judd.

Naomi, aged 76, died on Apr. 30, 2022.
