Sweeney's fourth studio album, Trophy, was released on March 10, 2017.[13] There are quite a few cuts on Trophy that have that fun and spicy side to the singer, such as the quite outspoken title cut, a track that one gets the feeling that Loretta Lynn could have pulled off quite easily circa 1972, writes Sounds Like Nashville.
