Kellie Pickler is gearing up to release brand-new music, and fans can expect an announcement about it very soon. They can also rest assured Kellie has them in mind while recording the new material.

"I get anxious because I don’t want to disappoint people, especially in these tough times,” Pickler tells TCPalm.com .  “For someone to pay their hard-earned dollar on my CD or a tee shirt, I want them to leave feeling like they got more than what they paid for.”

Kellie's 2012 release, 100 Proof, made Rolling Stone 's list of the best country albums of last year.
