Everything We Know About Faith Hill and Tim McGraw’s New Album, ‘The Rest of Our Life’
What's the only thing better than one beloved country superstar releasing a new album? Two beloved country superstars releasing a new album together! Country music's royal couple, Faith Hill and Tim McGraw, are releasing a brand-new collaborative album in November.
In many ways, Hill and McGraw's announcement of their upcoming record should not come as a surprise. Since late 2016, the couple has teamed up for everything from a sold-out Ryman Auditorium show to a song for a movie soundtrack to a full-on tour. Still, the news that Hill and McGraw will come together for their first shared album, after more than two decades of marriage and almost three decades each in the music business, is thrilling.
