Joan Osborne is back with Nobody Owns You, out on Womanly Hips Records and produced by Ben Rice (Valerie June, Norah Jones). While the Grammy®-nominated singer's highly praised 2020 release Trouble & Strife took a frank and honest look at our socio-political landscape, Nobody Owns You finds Osborne in a very personal place, contemplating life's major questions. The introspective collection highlights Osborne's songwriting prowess, and offers inspiration, optimism and hope, surrounded by a rootsy and deeply soulful sound. Joining Osborne on the album is Rice, who adds banjo guitar, along with Cindy Cashdollar on lap steel, Dave Sherman on piano, and Jack Petruzelli on baritone guitar. Backing vocalists Rachel Yamagata and Catherine Russell add tone and texture as they contribute harmonies throughout much of the album. Jill Sobule adds another layer of sound on the upbeat "Child of God" and the hymnlike "Lifeline."
