Chemistry is the tenth studio album by American pop singer Kelly Clarkson. It was released on June 23, 2023, through Atlantic Records. The album is produced by Clarkson's longtime collaborators, Jason Halbert and Jesse Shatkin, as well as newcomers Erick Serna and Rachel Orscher. Debuting at number six on Billboard 200, it became Clarkson's ninth top ten album on the chart. It is her first full-length studio album release of original material since 2017's Meaning of Life.
The album features collaborations with Steve Martin and Sheila E., and according to Clarkson, it illustrates "the arc of an entire relationship", showing every emotion you experience from the beginning to the end, related to the end of her marriage with Brandon Blackstock.[2]
Chemistry was promoted with two singles: the double-A-side singles, "Mine" / "Me" and "Favorite Kind of High". The album supported Clarkson's first ever Las Vegas residency, Chemistry: An Intimate Evening with Kelly Clarkson, which ran for fourteen nights from July 28, 2023, to February 10, 2024.
Chemistry was met with positive reviews, with critics praising Clarkson's voice and the album's emotional and sonic dexterity. A deluxe reissue of the album featuring five new tracks was released on September 22, 2023.[3] Chemistry was nominated for Best Pop Vocal Album at the 66th Annual Grammy Awards.[4]
