Kelsea Ballerini has released a new song and music video for “Sorry Mom” from her forthcoming Patterns album, which will be out on October 25. Kelsea posted a bunch of new photos for the new song on her Instagram, including a photo of herself with her mom, Carla. She captioned the sweet post, “‘Sorry Mom,’ a love letter to the growth of mother and daughter to woman and woman, is OUT in the world, and I couldn’t be more proud to share this song with you. It was one of the first songs i wrote for this album, alongside my 4 dear brilliant magical friends and collaborators (who I had the honor of making all of Patterns with), and we hope you love it.”

Carrie Underwood does not have many love songs in her catalog. Over the years, I’ve often chatted with Carrie when she told me about her omission of the standard love song. She told me in one of those interviews not long ago, “It’s never been a conscious thing to exclude love songs (laughs). I just think, in general, I find them like static. Like, I hear something, or it doesn’t seem genuine to me.”
