New World is the fourth album by the singer/songwriter Karla Bonoff and her first in six years since 1982's Wild Heart of the Young.

In 1989, Linda Ronstadt included three of Bonoff's compositions, "All My Life", "Trouble Again" and "Goodbye My Friend" on her Cry Like a Rainstorm, Howl Like the Wind album which featured Aaron Neville. Ronstadt and Neville's cover of "All My Life", won a Grammy for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal at the 33rd Annual Grammy Awards. In 1993, Wynonna Judd had a country music hit with Bonoff's "Tell Me Why" featured on her album of the same name on which Bonoff played guitar and sang backing vocals.

In 2023, "Way of the Heart" was featured in the 11th episode of And Just Like That... season 2 "The Last Supper Part Two: Entrée" where it was played during Carrie Bradshaw's (Sarah Jessica Parker) dinner party.
