After the Rain is the eighteenth studio album by Irma Thomas. After the Rain won Best Contemporary Blues Album at the 49th Annual Grammy Awards, the first Grammy Award for Thomas, and the second-ever Grammy win by a woman in this category, after Etta James.
The album was recorded at the Dockside Studios in Maurice, Louisiana, only months after Hurricane Katrina destroyed Thomas's home in New Orleans.
