Blackberry Rose is the second studio album by Lavender Country, released 49 years after their private press debut. It was released on February 18, 2022, via Don Giovanni Records.[4] In 2019 the group self-released Blackberry Rose and Other Stories on CD and sold it at local shows. The album used the same cover art, but contained a different track list and alternate versions of the songs found on the 2022 release, as well as a new version of “I Can't Shake the Stranger Out of You”, from the band's titular first album.
