Daughtry Release the Slow-Burning ‘Lioness,’ Announce ‘Dearly Beloved’ Album

Daughtry have announced that their sixth studio album, Dearly Beloved, will arrive this fall. As a preview, the rock band led by American Idol alum Chris Daughtry has shared another new song from the set, a smoldering alternative anthem called “Lioness.”

The track follows Dearly Beloved‘s “Heavy Is the Crown,” a Billboard Top 20 Hot Hard Rock song released in March, as well as last year’s “World on Fire.” To support the upcoming 13-song album, Daughtry will perform across the United States on the “Dearly Beloved” tour with support from Sevendust and Tremonti starting this November.

Listen to “Lioness,” see the album artwork and track listing for Dearly Beloved (out Sept. 17), and check out the dates on the upcoming “Dearly Beloved” tour down toward the bottom of this post.

“Big news, our new album, Daughtry Dearly Beloved drops on September 17th!” the band announced last week (July 16). “To pre-order, visit our official web store and get a personalized autographed copy! And, if you can’t wait, one of the new tracks titled ‘Lioness’ is available right now!”

In May, Daughtry collaborated with Sevendust vocalist Lajon Witherspoon on a cover of Temple of the Dog’s classic grunge duet, “Hunger Strike.” Daughtry’s last album, Cage to Rattle, emerged in 2018.
