Oklahoma country star Carrie Underwood will release her third album, which doesn’t yet have a title, on Nov. 3, her publicist announced today.

The four-time Grammy winner already has sold 10 million albums with her first two records, so the excitement is high to see what Checotah’s favorite daughter can do next. 

The album will again be released on 19 Recordings/Arista Nashville and will continue her collaboration with producer Mark Bright, who produced her 2007 hit-filled record “Carnival Ride,” as well as seven tracks from her blockbuster debut album, “Some Hearts,” according to the news release.

Earlier this year, Underwood became the first country artist in history to achieve 10 No. 1 singles from her first two albums when her cover of the Randy Travis hit “I Told You So” became the fifth consecutive chart-topper from “Carnival Ride.”  Her sophomore effort also included the smash, “Just a Dream,” and three hits Underwood co-wrote: “All-American Girl,” “So Small,” and “Last Name.”

The reigning Academy of Country Music Entertainer of the Year and three-time, reigning ACM and Country Music Association Female Vocalist is currently in the process of recording her new album, with a new single expected to arrive at radio late this summer.

The only “American Idol” winner ever to notch 10 No. 1 hits, Underwood’s collection of chart-toppers began with the instant success of her post-”American Idol” single, “Inside Your Heaven,” which debuted atop Billboard’s Hot 100 chart in the summer of 2005. It was the first of five No. 1′s to top the BDS or Mediabase charts from her seven-time platinum debut, “Some Hearts.” The others include the Grammy-winning “Jesus, Take the Wheel” and “Before He Cheats,” as well as “Don’t Forget to Remember Me” and “Wasted.”
