Down to Believing represents the eighth studio release by American singer-songwriter Allison Moorer, launched on March 16, 2015, through eOne Nashville. This record reunites Moorer with producer Kenny Greenberg, who was behind her initial two albums. The project was created over a span of two years, shaped by pivotal personal experiences such as her separation from Steve Earle and her son's diagnosis with autism.
Critics responded positively upon the album's release. Uncut Magazine described it as "the finest album of her career," while AllMusic characterized it as "an emotionally raw yet aesthetically fine album," emphasizing Moorer's artistic depth and emotional expression. Thierry Côté from Exclaim! acknowledged that although some production elements felt somewhat conventional, Moorer's vocal warmth and the emotional impact of the tracks remained strong.
