Gracie Abrams is back. The singer-songwriter finally announced on Monday (May 11) that her third studio album is on its way, revealing the title — Daughter From Hell — cover art and release date on Instagram.

“My third album is out July 17,” she wrote in the caption. “Whoa whoa whoa. Freaking out.”


The artwork is an up-close photo of Abrams in a crouched position, her eyes trained on something in the distance. “I am so ready for it to be yours,” she added of the LP.

Per the Daughter From Hell countdown page on Spotify, the project will feature 16 tracks, including lead single “Hit the Wall,” which drops Thursday (May 14). The album was produced by Abrams’ longtime collaborator Aaron Dessner, who worked with her on both her 2023 debut LP, Good Riddance, and 2024 sophomore effort The Secret of Us. Her first album reached No. 52 on the Billboard 200, while her second peaked at No. 2, marking her breakout moment with hit singles such as “That’s So True” and “I Love You, I’m Sorry.”

Abrams has long been teasing that she had new music in the works. In her 2025 Billboard cover story, she said that she and Dessner were “catching each other in these little pockets between hectic times” to work in the studio together as often as possible.

“Every day that I live with the music, things start to become a little clearer,” she added at the time. “There’s something we’re starting to crack that is making both of us feel energized.”

In April, she ramped up her album hints by sharing photos of her journal decorated with “DFH” stickers.
