June 23, 2023 (Los Angeles, CA) –Today, five-time GRAMMY® Award-winning legend and the best-selling female artist in country music history Shania Twain unveils the Royal Edition Extended Version of her acclaimed new album, Queen Of Me, out now via Republic Nashville, a division of Republic Records. With a total of 19 tracks, it encompasses her complete vision for this musical chapter. Listen to Queen of Me: Royal Edition Extended Version—HERE.
Shania shines once again on the fresh additions “Done & Dusted” and “On Three,” which features none other than Billy Ray Cyrus counting Shania in. She flexes her world-renowned range with dynamic performances punctuated by no shortage of personality, prowess, and passion. These songs ultimately round out the full body of work, elevating the Queen of Me chapter even higher.
“I was in the studio recording “On Three” and I thought: this needs the voice of a sexy man with a southern accent counting the song in, and the first person that came to mind was Billy Ray Cyrus.” Twain states on the Cyrus collaboration. “Since our friendship goes way way back, I just called him up and had him record and count me in from my phone! He was really fun and it worked out exactly how I imagined it.”
Recently, she delivered the Royal Edition highlighted by the originals “Bone Dry” and “Wanted Man.” She completed the collection with a striking and spirited acoustic rendition of “Queen of Me” and the buzzing “Giddy Up!” (Malibu Babie Remix).

Bringing the music to life on the road, the Queen of Me Tour is underway now and off to a rapturous start. With this being the Queen’s return to the stage in nearly five years, St. Louis Today stated what everyone was thinking: “Oh, Shania, how much your fans have missed you.” Variety claimed, “When [Shania] pulled [Man! I Feel Like A Woman] out as her inevitable final encore number Saturday, it still felt like it was cresting,” and Palm Springs Tribune added that the spectacle, “truly was a celebration of all things Shania.” Perhaps Bustle put it best: “Shania Twain’s 2023 Tour Did Impress Us Much.”
Following sold out gigs at legendary venues such as The Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, it makes stops across North America and Europe in Vancouver, Denver, Toronto, New York, London, Dublin and more before wrapping up on November 14th at Rogers Arena in Vancouver, BC.
Twain also recently attended the CMT Music Awards at the Moody Center in Austin, Texas, where she accepted the Equal Play Award, which recognizes artists who are vocal advocates for elevating diverse and underrepresented voices in country music.
