“I’m Gonna Love You” on September 27

Pre-Save Now

Platinum-selling artist and five-time 2024 CMA Awards nominee Cody Johnson and 8-time Grammy winner Carrie Underwood will release their long-anticipated duet “I’m Gonna Love You” next Friday, September 27 with a pre-save available today. The song, written by Chris Stevens, Kelly Archer, Travis Denning and produced by Trent Willmon, will be delivered to country radio and available at all digital retailers on that day. “I’m Gonna Love You” is the first single off Cody’s soon-to-be announced album expected out later this fall.

“From the moment I heard this song, I heard Carrie’s voice on it. It was a non-negotiable for me; either we sing it together, or I wouldn’t sing it at all. It’s that special to me,” shares Cody. “Working with Carrie has been an absolute pleasure. She’s not only one hell of a singer, but she’s a class act all the way around. It warms my heart to work with someone who’s seen so much success in their career and they’re still so down to earth. I feel like this duet is going to be massive in so many ways, and I couldn’t be more proud of it!”

“From the time I first heard his voice, I knew Cody had something special,” says Carrie.  “I’m excited for our fans to hear this special collaboration.”

Cody and Carrie first met in person backstage at the 2022 CMT Music Awards in Nashville. On that night, Cody performed on the outdoor stage on Broadway in front of a live crowd in the pouring rain and Carrie won her 24^th and 25^th awards, setting a record for the most awards won in the history of the show. Cody’s stellar appearance won him the “Performance of the Year” award the following year. From there, they sparked a friendship that resulted in this dynamic duet.

“I’m Gonna Love You” is the follow up to Cody’s most recent #1 single “Dirt Cheap” which set a new career benchmark with 220 million global streams when it landed in the chart-topping spot.

Carrie Underwood Joins Luke Bryan and Lionel Richie on the Judging Panel, Along With Host Ryan Seacrest

Season Eight Airs in 2025 on ABC and Hulu

Television’s most widely recognized music competition series, “American Idol,” welcomes season four winner and eight-time GRAMMY^® Award winner Carrie Underwood to the judging panel for season eight on ABC and Hulu. Music industry icons Luke Bryan and Lionel Richie will return for their eighth consecutive season as judges, and longtime host Ryan Seacrest also returns when the show premieres in spring 2025 for the franchise’s 23^rd overall season. Since it began airing on ABC, “American Idol” has been a top unscripted series on ABC in Total Viewers.

“Carrie Underwood is the first ‘American Idol’ alum ever to join the judging panel.

Underwood Added 2^nd Show to First Hawaii Engagement After Selling Out 1^st Show in Under One Hour

Superstar Made History as First Artist Honored Concurrently By State of Hawaii and City of Honolulu, Governor and Mayor Proclaim July 18 as “CARRIE UNDERWOOD DAY”

Hi-Res Images & Video Recap

8-time Grammy winner Carrie Underwood wrapped her first-ever concert appearances in Hawaii with two sold-out shows at Honolulu’s Blaisdell Arena on July 19 and 20, marking the 50^th state she has performed in.  Due to extraordinary demand, Underwood added the second show at Blaisdell Arena back in March after selling out the first in under one hour, joining Garth Brooks as the only two country artists to sell out the venue that quickly.

To kick things off, on the eve of her concerts, the Honorable Rick Blangiardi, Mayor of the City and County of Honolulu, and Governor Josh Green proclaimed July 18 “Carrie Underwood Day,” where she was presented with ceremonial proclamations in recognition of her incredible career achievements, significant cultural and societal contributions, and her first-ever performances in Hawaii.  Underwood is the first country artist to receive this honor from the State of Hawaii and the City and County of Honolulu.  It is the first time in the history of the Aloha State that both have been bestowed upon an entertainer in any genre concurrently by those government entities. 

Underwood wowed the sold-out, standing-room-only crowds at both back-to-back nights at the Blaisdell Arena with her incredible vocal prowess and her spectacular, high-energy performances.  The setlist highlighted her stellar catalogue, with the audiences singing along to every word from such #1 hits as “Jesus, Take The Wheel,” “Before He Cheats,” and “Blown Away,” to songs from her latest album, Denim & Rhinestones, and everything in-between.  Across both nights Underwood also covered Joan Jett’s “I Love Rock ‘N Roll,” Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’,” and Guns N’ Roses’ “Paradise City” and “Sweet Child O’ Mine.”

Another highlight of both evenings was when she brought a young girl from the audience to join her on stage each night to sing her #1 hit, “All-American Girl” – bringing back a fan-favorite moment from Underwood’s earlier tours.

Underwood posted more highlights of her trip to Hawaii on Instagram, enjoying everything the beautiful island had to offer.

Later this summer, Underwood resumes her ongoing REFLECTION: The Las Vegas Residency, which continues to play to packed houses, with tickets currently on sale through October.
