Carrie Underwood will release her latest album, Storyteller, on Oct. 23, propelled by the project’s first single, “Smoke Break.” The track was co-written by Underwood, Hillary Lindsey, and Chris DeStefano.

Underwood revealed the album’s cover in an online feature on EW.com, and debuted the music video for “Smoke Break” earlier this week. The clip was directed by Randee St. Nicholas, who shot Underwood’s video for “Blown Away.”

“I feel like [Storyteller] is just really relatable,” Underwood told EW.com. “There’s going to be a lot of songs on the album that people can listen to and be like ‘I totally get what you’re trying to say.’ Each album so far has had its own look, its own feel, its own sound, and this upcoming album is definitely no exception.”

Underwood surprised the Sony Music Nashville staff earlier this week by dropping by to say thanks to the entire company for their contributions in launching “Smoke Break.”
