Joy Williams Unveils 'Until the Levee,' Album Track List and Release Date [Fresh Track]

Last time we saw Nashville resident and

former Civil War

Joy Williams, we saw a lot of her — it was in

her very revealing video for the song "Woman (Oh Mama),"

the lead single from her forthcoming record Venus. Today, Williams is unveiling a lot more details about Venus, including its release date, track list, album art and yet another single.

Williams' first post-Wars album will be released June 30 via Sensibility Recordings/Columbia, and the latest tune she's sharing with us is called "Until the Levee." As the singer tells EW, "When I was writing ‘Until the Levee,’ I felt like I was swimming in that hot water. Everyone was asking about the abrupt end of the Civil Wars, I was trying to sort out a new rhythm as a new mother, fighting for my marriage which was going through a major overhaul, and reeling over my Dad’s terminal cancer diagnosis. I felt like I was up to my eyeballs in it all."

See if you can hear the tension in "Until the Levee," which you'll find embedded after the jump. Also after the jump, the full Venus track list (HT: Exclaim).
