Kelsea Ballerini has reached her 10-year milestone as a country artist, but that hasn’t slowed her down. 2024 is proving that her star only continues rising, including performing for the 2024 CMA Fest, preparing to make her coaching debut on The Voice as the competition show’s fifth judge (alongside a returning Adam Levine) and getting ready to release a new album, which she tells Billboard in a new interview, that it’s “close to done” (“I’m still finishing final touches on vocals, but we have half of it in mixing,” she shares).

In case you’re looking for more Ballerini-approved gifts — especially for music lovers and coffee fans, the singer also mentioned the one accessory she always needs when she’s sipping a cup of joe.

“I’m big on the cup,” she says. “It’s all about the vessel. For me, I really like oversized mugs. There’s just something that adds a bit of coziness to the experience.”

Below ShopBillboard also chats with Ballerini about what she hopes to teach her teammates on The Voice, her iconic duet with folk-alternative artist Noah Kahan, and her thoughts on more country artists partnering with coffee (and donut!) brands.

First off, congratulations on The Voice! You’ve also celebrated a decade in country music, so what are you hoping to pass on to your teammates? And also, where do you see your music evolving and going next?

I feel like I’m in this really beautiful crossroads of my career where I have a decade of things that I’ve learned and experienced and navigated. But, I still very much feel like I’m in the puberty stage of my career, where I still really have so much that I want to do and so much more music that I want to make, many more stages that I want to play on. Advice that I can give my future team, would just be what I’ve experienced in the last 10 years — and also being really open about the fact that I’m still learning, I’m still growing. There’s still things that I’m wanting to do and I think that’s a really cool space to be in as a coach, to be at that crossroads [where] I [have] experience enough to be able to give advice, but I’m also still experiencing so much and can walk alongside these artists with them.

You recently did a duet with Noah Kahan — what was that like and how did it come about?

I am such a fan of Noah’s and we both got honored at the [Billboard + NMPA Grammy Week Showcase] event before the Grammys, and my goal that night was to meet Noah and we just became buddies. So, when the ACMs were coming up, there was an artistic synergy that made sense between our music. It was really fun to be able to combine the world of Stick Season and Welcome Mat. He’s such an incredible songwriter and musician, but he’s also just a wonderful person. To be able to be buddies now and have that artistic synergy, I definitely think there’s more to come there.

And now you’re with The Original Donut Shop, Jelly Roll just partnered with Dunkin, and Dolly Parton has her collaboration with Krispy Kreme — is there a connection?

Well, everyone loves donuts and coffee. That’s so funny, I didn’t realize that. But I love Jelly, he’s a dear friend so I’m definitely going to start some beef with him about it. No, honestly, it’s been a really perfect synergy of a partnership because I have constantly been trying to find the consistent things in my life, whether I’m home or on the road. Wherever I am, things that can feel the same and so being able to partner with one of my love languages and then also collaborate and do this flavor together, it feels really synergetic and delicious.
