Pistol Annies are slated to release their hotly-anticipated second album on May 7, and now the country trio have revealed the cover art and track listing for the record, which is titled 'Annie Up.'

The themes found on 'Hush Hush' -- the new single from the Pistol Annies' anticipated sophomore album 'Annie Up' -- work within the portrait of the hard luck, rural America that the trio of women painted on 'Hell on Heels.' One recognizes a few characters, but one element is missing:

Singer-songwriter Ashley Monroe is stepping into the spotlight spawned by her work with Pistol Annies to shine a little on her own. Hippie Annie, as she's known in the group, is releasing her very first solo album on Warner Music Nashville.

The Pistol Annies have already earned a chart-topping debut album, and their single 'Hell on Heels' went gold, selling over 500,000 copies. Now, Miranda Lambert, Angaleena Presley and Ashley Monroe are on a natural high after getting some top praise from Neil Young in his recently released book, Waging Heavy Peace: A Hippie Dream.

We imagine that aside from singing in a critically successful country music trio, one of the best parts of being in Pistol Annies is that each member of the group has two ‘sisters’ they can count on for anything. At least, that seems to be true for Angeleena Presley, who turned to bandmates Miranda Lambert and Ashley Monroe for help in picking a white dress for her recent wedding. The trio went dr

Miranda Lambert and her girls in the Pistol Annies hit the road and slum it in a beat up, beige VW van in their super fun video for ‘Takin’ Pills,’ from their debut album, ‘Hell on Heels.’ We are left to wonder where they found that bucket of bolts — and how is it still running? It’s a relic and should be in the Smithsonian, but it gets the point across. Even though it looks like it’s on its last

Pistol Annies singer Angaleena Presley has married. The announcement was made with this photo on the all-girl trio’s Facebook page late Thursday afternoon (May 24). “Holler got hitched, y’all! Congrats Angaleena we love you!” the band wrote on Facebook.

Every year in April, thousands of old school music fans flock to record stores in celebration of national Record Store Day. This year, the Pistol Annies will join in on the fun–and capitalize on the musical tastes of throwback listeners–with the April 21 release of ‘Hell on Heels’ on vinyl. That’s today!

The Pistol Annies‘ song from ‘The Hunger Games’ soundtrack has just been made available for listen in full, thanks to an early leak to YouTube. ‘Run Daddy Run’ was released by Track City. Listen below to hear the heavy, brooding tune which seems like a perfect fit for one of the film’s more desperate scenes.

The 2011 American Country Awards on Fox is quickly becoming another must watch live television broadcast. Top country talents like Blake Shelton, Pistol Annies and Trace Adkins are on the early list of performers. With over a month to go before the Dec. 5 ceremony, more names are sure to be announced.

It’s not clear what it is, but Pistol Annies are up to something. The all-female country trio featuring Miranda Lambert, Angaleena Presley and Ashley Monroe are just two months removed from releasing their debut album, but already seem to be working on something new.

Turns out those Pistol Annies are pretty good shots — after setting their sights on chart domination, they delivered with one of the year’s most impressive debuts. The trio’s first album, ‘Hell on Heels,’ emerged on top of Billboard’s Country Album charts in its first week, moving enough units to also earn a number five debut on the overall Top 200.
