Ahead of the launch of her 43-city arena tour, THE DENIM & RHINESTONES TOUR, 8-time GRAMMY® Award winner and 3-time ACM Entertainer of the Year, Carrie announces the electrifying second single from her Denim & Rhinestones album, “Hate My Heart,” impacting country radio on October 31.  Carrie shared the news about her latest single with an exclusive new video clip, providing a special behind-the-scenes look at her rehearsal of the song for her upcoming tour. Carrie co-wrote “Hate My Heart” with frequent collaborators Hillary Lindsey and David Garcia, as well as hit artist/songwriter Hardy. Listen to “Hate My Heart” now.

“‘Hate My Heart’ was definitely part of my desire to have fun on this album.  I wanted songs that would be exciting to perform live and would fill up an arena, and that’s exactly what we’re about to do with The Denim & Rhinestones Tour.  This one is definitely going to get everyone up on their feet and having a good time.  It was great writing ‘Hate My Heart’ with Hillary Lindsey and David Garcia, who I love collaborating with, and also getting to work with Hardy, who brought a cool vibe and an energy to the track.”

Carrie is nominated for three awards at the upcoming CMA Awards on November 9, including Entertainer of the Year, Female Vocalist of the Year and Musical Event of the Year for the multi-week #1 smash hit, “If I Didn’t Love You” with Jason Aldean.
