Wynonna Judd Keeps THIS Promise After Mother Naomi Judd Died

Wynonna Judd showed her love for her late mother, Naomi Judd, by fulfilling one promise she made after the legendary singer's death.

Fans still mourn after the untimely and unexpected passing of Naomi. Her daughter, Wynonna, pushed herself to continue her career and keep a promise to her mother.

The singer recently released a heartfelt collaboration and message of hope with Waxahatchee, titled, "Other Side." The project fulfilled her promise to Naomi to continue her musical career even without her mother and musical partner.

"In the midst of everything that has happened, I said that I would continue to sing. So, here I am. I met @waxa_katie last year, and we connected immediately," the 57-year-old said on Instagram.

Wynonna detailed that they recorded "Other Side" in the studio on the farm, becoming one of her favorite recording experiences to date. She then expressed her gratitude to have the chance to sing the song.

"Other Side" serves as her first release since 2020 and the first project without Naomi.

Wynonna Judd Earns Katie Crutchfield's Approval

Following the collaboration, the band's vocalist Katie Crutchfield applauded her experience working with Wynonna. According to the singer, it was one of the most stimulating experiences she had in her songwriting career.

"Wynonna is an icon and a fountain of wisdom. Sharing space with her to create something new was really nothing but a joy and an honor. Her spirit inspires me daily and her continued encouragement has meant the world," she said in a press release, per PEOPLE.

Aside from her newest project, she confirmed that she would continue with "The Judds: The Final Tour" after Naomi's death.

The 11-date tour will welcome several performers, including Little Big Town, Ashley McBryde, and Trisha Yearwood. She will perform across the country and visit several states, including Miami, Ohio, South Dakota, Alabama, Texas, and Kentucky, among others.

Naomi Judd died a day before The Judds were inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame. The late 76-year-old singer died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound after her long battle against mental health.

Before her passing, she opened up about her mental health for the first time in her 2016 book, "River of Time: My Descent into Depression and How I Emerged with Hope." She revealed that she experienced the worst after her tour since she was suppressing her memories related to child molestation.
