Country star Carrie Underwood has announced a special performance for her legion of dedicated fans.

The singer’s brand-new album ‘My Saviour’ is released on Friday 26th March but Carrie plans to celebrate its release on Easter Sunday.

She will perform a special livestreamed concert from Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium and perform some of the classic hymns from her new album.

The album includes Carrie’s versions of hymns including ‘Just As I Am’ and ‘Amazing Grace’.

She will be joined by Gospel singer Cece Winans, who also appears on the album, and singer-songwriter Bear Rineheart for the one-off concert.

Carrie said, “This is an album I have always wanted to record and I’m thrilled to be able to bring these uplifting, inspirational songs to life in this special way.”

The live-streamed concert will remain on Facebook for two days and will raise money for charity Save the Children.

She added, “It means so much to be able to bring this event to people in their homes on a day that holds so much meaning for us spiritually and to be able to raise much needed funds and awareness for the incredible work of Save the Children as we celebrate the importance of family.”
