Mattea's first compilation was issued in 1990 titled A Collection of Hits, which later certified platinum in the United States. Both of its new recordings were released as singles and reached the country chart top ten: "The Battle Hymn of Love" and "A Few Good Things Remain". In 1991, Time Passes By was released. It reached number nine on the Billboard country chart and was her third gold-certified release. Its title track reached number seven on the North American country charts. Her seventh studio album was released in 1992, Lonesome Standard Time, which also certified gold in the United States. Her 1994 album, Walking Away a Winner, brought Mattea her highest-charting single in several years, along with two additional top 20 singles.
PolyGram/Mercury released two more of Mattea's albums: Love Travels (1997) and The Innocent Years (2000). The latter featured her last charting singles to date. On the Narada label, Mattea released three studio albums including 2003's Joy for Christmas Day. In 2008, she issued her next studio release titled Coal. While reaching the country albums chart, it also became her first album to chart (and top) the Billboard Top Bluegrass Albums chart. On Sugar Hill Records, Mattea's sixteenth studio album was released: Calling Me Home. The album similarly charted on both the Billboard country and bluegrass album charts, reaching number two on the latter. Mattea's most recent album was 2018's Pretty Bird, along with new single releases.
