"Sparrow" is the fourth studio album by what American country music artist?

“Sparrow” is the fourth studio album by American country music artist Ashley Monroe. Released on April 20, 2018, through Warner Bros. Nashville, it followed Monroe’s earlier albums Like a Rose, The Blade, and her self-titled 2009 debut.

The album was produced by Dave Cobb and recorded at Nashville’s historic RCA Studio A, a setting closely associated with classic country recordings. Its sound blends country, folk, and gospel influences, giving the record a warm, roots-oriented character. The opening track, “Orphans of the Night,” and the single “Hands on You” helped establish the album’s reflective tone.

Monroe was also known for her work as part of the country trio Pistol Annies, alongside Miranda Lambert and Angeleena Presley. That group’s success sometimes causes listeners to mistake Sparrow for a collaborative or group release, but it is a solo Ashley Monroe album. Sparrow reached No. 21 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart and was followed by Rosegold in 2021.
