When a singer steps away from the stage, a comeback isn’t always guaranteed. But Jessica Simpson? She just made hers happen.

“I’m about to take the stage for the first time in 15 years,” Simpson said in a video posted to her Instagram Story before the show. “I’m very excited. I’m blessed to be here. I think it’s gonna go good, I hope!”
Once onstage, the “Take My Breath Away” singer made it clear why this moment mattered. “This time I needed to remember who I was and why I wanted to sing in the first place and all the music that inspires me,” she told the crowd. “And I needed to forget who they told me to be.”
Simpson’s setlist was a mix of old favorites and new material. She performed her signature cover of “These Boots Are Made for Walkin’” and “Son of a Preacher Man” alongside fresh tracks like “Breadcrumbs” and “Leave” — both from her upcoming EP Nashville Canyon: Part 1, out Monday, March 21.
