On Oct. 17 "Redemption Songs" — on the Sh-K-Boom Records label — is scheduled to hit stores around the country. The recording, according to press notes, is a collection of "original and diversely classic songs reflective of [Rubin-Vega's] experiences in life, love and motherhood."
In a statement, the actress says, "Some of these songs were written when I experienced deep losses and incredible firsts. I was inspired to write again. It was a very 'fertile' time for creativity."

"Citizens of the World"
"Luca Ariel"
"Heartstrings"
"Angel Now"
"Hold On"
"Mental Tenant"
"En Estos Dias"
