True Blue is the third studio album by American singer and songwriter Madonna. It was released on June 30, 1986, by Sire Records. Madonna had greater control over the creative direction of True Blue than on her second studio album, Like a Virgin, as she attempted to establish herself as a serious artist and appeal to a broader, more mature audience. Madonna recorded the album in 1985 and 1986 and collaborated with Patrick Leonard and Stephen Bray on both writing and production. She had previously worked with the latter on Like a Virgin. True Blue marked the first time she co-wrote and co-produced every track on an album. Its themes—primarily love, romance, marriage, and devotion—draw in part on her personal life and her marriage to actor Sean Penn. Musically, True Blue is a pop and dance-pop album with a soundscape characterized by synthesizers, strings, guitars, drum machines, and backing vocal arrangements, influenced by the Motown sound, girl groups, and Latin pop. Madonna promoted True Blue with the Who's That Girl World Tour, the second highest-grossing female concert tour of 1987.
