Chanteuse
Country US née le 29 Juillet 1983 à Mammoth Spring (Arkansas).
A vocalist
and songwriter with a touch of rock & roll swagger, a honky tonk heart, and a
lyrical voice that puts a modern-day spin on classic country themes, Ashley
McBryde put in years of hard work before becoming an overnight success.
Hailing from Mammoth Spring, Arkansas, McBryde first displayed her interest in
music when she was three years old and tried to play her father's guitar. After
repeatedly telling young Ashley to leave the instrument alone, her parents
decided the best solution was to get her a guitar of her own. After learning to
play, McBryde stuck with the guitar, and at 17 she wrote her first song.
Initially, she was shy about sharing her work, and it wasn't until she enrolled
at Arkansas State University (where she played in the marching band) that she
began playing her songs for people outside her immediate family.
In 2005, McBryde recorded an album's worth of songs, titled Ashley McBryde, that
she released herself in early 2006. Since she was a teenager, her dream had been
to go to Nashville and break into the music business, and in 2007, she finally
pulled up stakes and relocated to Music City. She assembled a band and played
any club or bar that would have her, and she began making a name for herself.
She won the Colgate Country Showdown talent competition in 2009 and 2010, and
the same year, she and her band won a statewide "battle of the bands" in
Tennessee. In 2011, McBryde released her second album, Elsebound, which once
again was issued through her own label. More touring through the South followed,
and in addition to headlining her own club dates, McBryde was opening shows for
such stars as Willie Nelson, Chris
Stapleton, Chris Cagle, and Hank
Williams, Jr. (The latter came out on-stage while McBryde played his hit "Family
Tradition," with Bocephus approvingly putting his arm around her as she sang.)
In 2016, McBryde issued an eight-song EP, Jalopies & Expensive Guitars, that
helped build a buzz about her music, and country star Eric
Church began singing her praises, describing her as a "whiskey-drinkin'
badass" and joining her on-stage to duet on her song "Bible and a .44." After Church gave McBryde his
endorsement, more and more people began to take notice, and she finally broke
through with the single "A Little Dive Bar in Dahlonega," which found an
appreciative audience on streaming services and led to her making her first
appearance on the Grand Ole Opry in June 2017.
A year later, she returned with her major-label debut, Girl Going Nowhere,
produced by Jay Joyce and released by Warner Music Nashville. The album included
the hit "A Little Dive Bar in Dahlonega" and earned McBryde her first Grammy
nomination, for Best Country Album. 2019 saw McBryde issue the singles "Girl
Goin' Nowhere" and "One Night Standards," and she was nominated for two Grammy
Awards that December (Best Country Song and Solo Performance for "Girl Goin'
Nowhere"). Her next full-length, Never Will, was again produced by Joyce and
appeared in April 2020.
