NASHVILLE, Tenn. - PLATINUM -- certified, GRAMMY-nominated artist and songwriter Anne Wilson releases Stars (Blue Hour Deluxe), available everywhere now via Capitol Christian Music Group. The expanded 17-track deluxe adds depth to her third studio album Stars, bringing fresh moments of reflection, surrender and hope to a project rooted in faith, healing and reaching for Jesus in every season.

"These songs have continued to take on new meaning since 'Stars' released last October, and getting to bring them to life again with new versions, incredible collaborations and 'Me & Jesus' has been such a gift," shares Wilson. "My hope is that these songs encourage people and remind them that God is faithful through every high and every low. He always meets us right where we are."

Among the deluxe album's five new additions is "Me & Jesus," a brand-new song born from the grief and reflection of losing a close friend. Wilson also teams up with country hitmaker Drew Baldridge for "Maker's Mark" -- a reflective look at legacy, purpose and the difference between chasing success and leaving something meaningful behind. Written by Baldridge, Allison Veltz-Cruz, Laura Veltz and Lalo Guzman, the song points to a life marked by Jesus, arriving with an all-new music video, out now.

The expanded record also features the recently released "Still Do" with Cole Swindell, which Billboard tapped as "a country-shaded song of faith and redemption," an acoustic version of the sweeping "Carry Me" and a live version of "God Story."

The Kentucky native will spend the summer appearing at some of Christian music's most beloved fairs and festivals before heading to the United Kingdom for Big Church Festival and Long Road Festival. From there, she will kick off the second leg of her recently extended The STARS Tour, which adds 24 dates across the U.S. to the previously announced run. The fall leg will bring her compelling live show to cities across the West Coast, Midwest, South and more, with special guests Peter Burton and Aodhán King set to join on select dates. Tickets are available for purchase via annewilsonofficial.com.

Beyond music, Wilson continues to expand her message through writing. Last month, she released her third book, "Rebel: Following Jesus When the World Walks the Other Way," via W Publishing, an imprint of Thomas Nelson. The release follows her recent Book Impact Award win at the 2026 K-LOVE Fan Awards for her "Hey Girl" 40-Day Devotional, further underscoring the growing impact of her faith-forward storytelling across music, print and the live stage.

With over 2 billion career streams, Wilson is cementing herself as "one of contemporary Christian music's most dynamic trailblazers" (People). Building on the success of a GRAMMY nomination, multiple Dove Award wins and recognition from Spotify, CMT, Billboard and more, Wilson's next chapter promises to shine even brighter.

ABOUT ANNE WILSON:

Anne Wilson makes music where faith and country meet, a rare space where honesty, grief and hope live side by side. At just 24, she has already crossed the 2 billion streams milestone and emerged as one of the most distinctive new voices in both Christian and country music.

Her third studio album, Stars, captures a young artist growing up on record. Shaped by the tragic loss of her brother Jacob, Wilson's faith could have been shattered -- but instead it was strengthened. That tension, of wrestling with God yet still loving Jesus, defines her music and makes her profoundly relatable. "Faith isn't about never questioning," she says. "It's about holding on in the middle of the storm."

Stars threads together themes of grief, growth, maturity, and wonder, carried by Wilson's soaring vocals and country-pop production. From the wide-eyed imagery of the title track to the raw prayer of "Carry Me" and the redemption arc of "Dead in the Water," the album reflects both the hardship of loss and the joy of new perspective.

Alongside the album, Wilson is delivering her new music to fans in person on The STARS Tour. She's also released a 40-day "Hey Girl" devotional. Named after her encouraging anthem, the devotional is aimed at young readers, extending her message of identity and Christ-centered hope beyond the stage. Following her record-breaking album REBEL, which boldly defined what it looks like to stand firm in faith, Wilson continues that powerful message in her new book, "Rebel." Written to encourage readers of all ages to learn what it means to follow Jesus, even when the crowd walks the other way.

Anne Wilson is still becoming, still wrestling and still rejoicing - but Stars proves she's

shining brighter not in spite of the struggle, but because of it.
