Sheryl Crow announces Pick You Up for October 9

Sheryl Crow is back with a new album and a fresh single. According to her official site and recent coverage, Pick You Up arrives on October 9, 2026, and Freedom Bus is out now.
Album start with seven songs
On August 14, Crow announced Pick You Up as her 12th studio album, with seven tracks written alongside longtime collaborator Jeff Trott. The record will be released digitally first, followed by a physical edition on November 20, 2026.
The album launch also comes with a clear lead single strategy. BMI's award announcement confirms that Crow will be honored with the Troubadour Award on September 14 in Nashville, adding a second August news line to the rollout.
A busy late summer
That Nashville award sits in the middle of a crowded late-summer run. Crow is listed for multiple U.S. live dates in late August and early September, including the Outlaw Music Festival stop on August 28 in Wantagh and the Bridgeport shows on September 4 and 5.
The route also gives the story a concrete scale. Live listings currently show at least five late-August and early-September appearances around the album cycle, which is a stronger release narrative than a one-off single drop.

The sound of the new record
Pick You Up is built as a compact seven-song set, with Jeff Trott again in the writing room. That keeps the project close to the country-rock and adult-alternative lane that Crow has occupied for decades, while the new single leans on her familiar storytelling style.
Crow's recent catalog context matters here. BMI says she has sold more than 50 million albums globally, won nine Grammy Awards and earned 12 BMI Awards, so this release lands inside one of the most established songwriting careers in American rock and pop.
Where Crow stands now
Sheryl Crow's next officially confirmed live date is September 14, 2026, in Nashville, where BMI will present her Troubadour Award.
