McBride is currently at work on a new album, which RCA expects to release this fall. Her latest set is 2001's "Greatest Hits," which features 13 previously released songs and four new recordings.

All four of the new songs on "Greatest Hits"--"When God Fearin' Women Get the Blues," "Blessed," "Where Would You Be" and "Concrete Angel"--were hits on the country charts, and the album has been certified double-platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America.
