Sheryl Crow's New Album
In 2020, Sheryl Crow declared that Threads would be her last album. She initially wanted to stop putting out records because releasing albums became a "dying art form" due to technology, as people would only "cherry-pick" songs to add to their playlists instead of listening to albums in full.
However, she changed her mind as she just released Evolution, even though she previously said that making albums was "a waste of time and money."
She defended her decision by explaining that her new album isn't a conventional record but rather just a "compilation of new songs."
Evolution is now available to stream on major music platforms online.
