Michelle Williams Releases New Album 'Journey to Freedom' Today

Grammy winning singer, songwriter and actress Michelle Williams' highly anticipated new album, Journey to Freedom, is already making a splash, with the new release topping iTunes Christian & Gospel Album Chart at #1! Out in stores everywhere today, September 9th, the inspirational Journey to Freedom marks her fourth studio album, with Williams in the midst of a cross-country slate of appearances, including upcoming appearances in New York, Atlanta and more.

After a lively appearance back in Chicago on the morning show 'Windy City Live' on September 4th, 'The Yolanda Adams Morning Show,' 'The James Fortune Show' and more, Williams continues to cross the country, with upcoming appearances this week including Chicago's WGN Morning News, Power 105.1-FM's 'Breakfast Club,' 'The DL Hughley Show,' 'The Rickey Smiley Morning Show,' 'Good Day Atlanta,' as well as an in-store album signing in Atlanta on Thursday September 11th, at Walmart (5401 Fairington Road, Lithonia GA, 6-7:30 pm).

Following the acclaimed #1 gospel hit 'Say Yes' (feat. Beyoncé and Kelly Rowland) and vivacious 'Fire' and 'If We Had Your Eyes' (feat. Fantasia), the revelatory Journey to Freedom fuels listeners with sumptuous sounds, Williams' dazzling vocals, and powerful lyrics, on tracks such as 'Need Your Help,' 'Fall' (feat. Lecrae and Tye Tribbett), 'In the Morning,' the guitar-driven 'Beautiful' and 'Believe in Me,' with an additional treat of never-before-seen footage available on an exclusive Walmart CD/DVD special edition of the album release.

In addition to the debut of Journey to Freedom, and hitting the road, Williams remains a creative force to spark creative inspiration in others, starring as a mentor on the new Oxygen television series 'Fix My Choir' later this fall.
