Six years after the successful release of "Hotel Paper," singer/songwriter Michelle Branch [ tickets ] will drop her fourth solo album, "Everything Comes and Goes," this fall.

The platinum-selling artist worked alongside producers John Leventhal and John Shanks on the new work, which was recorded in Nashville, New York and Los Angeles. The album's lead single, "Sooner or Later," is slated to make its iTunes premiere July 28, followed by a country-radio debut Aug. 11. No word yet on the exact release date for the album itself.

"I never consider what an album's about while I'm recording it," Branch said in a press release. "But in the end, I guess that 'Everything Comes and Goes' is really a record about passion--about wanting it, about losing it, and then finding it all over again."

"Everything Comes and Goes" marks the first new solo effort for the Arizona native since 2003's "Hotel Paper," which debuted at No. 2 on The Billboard 200 and featured the Grammy-nominated single "Are You Happy Now?"

Branch joined forces with friend and fellow musician Jessica Harp in 2006 to create the country-pop outfit The Wreckers. The duo released "Stand Still, Look Pretty" later that year and received several nominations for the Academy of Country Music Awards and the CMA Awards.

Branch has one Grammy trophy, which she took home in 2003 for Best Pop Collaboration with Vocals for her duet with Santana on "The Game of Love."
