Ashley McBryde - Never Wanted To Be That Girl (with Carly Pearce) [Live From ACM Awards]

[@tammyhooper3459]

This is country music at its best. Storytelling and amazing vocals. These ladies should duet again as their voices are pure magic together.

Ashley is by far and away the best female vocalist in country music today. Hope she is finally getting the recognition she deserves.

You're right she's the best.

Ashley is the reason to do what you know you were born to do

[@lynnbrandau6144]

Sad song😢😢😢❤❤❤

[@MW-wc5lo]

She is truly a country singer! She hasn’t changed even though I’m sure she has been pressured to do so. I appreciate the fact that she is a class act. A lot of what is coming out of Nashville is pure garbage. It seem to straddle country, pop, and even rap. It will appeal to some folks but it’s not country! Some have sold out but Ashley has stayed true. Country is Life! It’s hard work, love and loss, family, friends, country and faith! I wish you ever success Ashley and my hope is that Nashville will get it right. You truly are a star.keep on shining Lady!

[@susandias1982]

Exactly!!

[@kathykelly527]

She is the real deal. Love her voice. She has "heart".🩷

[@evakinnison8998]

I love this song, I like both Carly and Ashley, but Ashley has some awesome pipes on her, song writers need to pitch her their songs. Ashley McBride is one of the best singers out in country music right now, she has a soulful sound.

[@justiceharrison5142]

Hello there Eva nice meeting you here

[@brendaS1533]

She's amazing writing her own songs.

[@kimberlybellefontaine1215]

Agree. She’s just a natural powerhouse. God really blessed her with some strong pipes.

[@kc7067]

I absolutely love Ashley!

Carly Pearce is great- but Ashley McBryde is extraordinary! My goodness! 😍

Ash is simultaneously a throwback to the greats and the greatest of country music and completely modern and refreshing. Listening her feels new but also like this is the voice thats comforted me my entire life. ❤️

[@amypadget6605]

Very well said. My favorite. I've seen her three times. Bout time to see her again!

[@alexavanalstine8636]

Agreed!

[@JeffGraves]

Well said. I totally agree.

[@amywoodard7451]

Absolutely ❤️

[@gillesthibault429]

Her "First Thing I Reach For", for a new song, has every characteristic of a Country Classic, from the steel guitar, the upright bass, the harmonies vocals, etc. Everything but the twin fiddles! And Ashley's voice is just to die for! A Future HOFer, no doubt!

[@cwester6544]

Truly can't find the words for this performance & this song...But it's definitely one of the very BEST Country songs I've heard in year's! It truly hits my heart and many others I'm sure...

[@melvinsmiley5295]

Both great performances. I like how Carly intentionally holds back….letting Ashley project her sound louder. They Really complement each other’s strengths.

[@adking18]

They both held back on the choruses at the end of the other person’s verse. Ashley doesn’t need any help projecting her vocals, she’s the better vocalist on stage by a mile but both offered background harmonies to each other at the appropriate times.

[@katbyrd726]

Amazing performance, the highlight of the night for me. Still disappointed that you haven't received the recognition that you deserve. Best vocalist in country music today. ❤

[@joekempton7319]

Have you heard the 2021 version of Strawberry Wine? If not, check it out.

[@patbutler4955]

Also besides being the best female vocalist she is also a great songwriter!

[@sonyamilamrollins6698]

@@joekempton7319 who sings the new version?

[@gillesthibault429]

Her album is now 3 years old. But wait! She's got another one coming, this year, hopefully! Great, soulful vocalist, and songwriter!

A new version was recorded by Deana Carter, with Ashley McBryde, Lauren Alaina, and Kylie Morgan, as an extra track on the 25th Anniversary Edition of the album "Did I Shave My Legs For This".

My daughter went through this, and this song came on the radio and she cried herself sick!

Real country music with deep meaningful lyrics and real instruments. That 80s 90s country!!! Why can't all country still sound like this??! No hip hop beats or terrible rapping or techno beats. Simply real true country

[@juliethompson4735]

Yes exactly

Ashley deserves the world

[@wandabutterly3478]

Mark my words Ashely, you will be in the Country Music Hall of Fame in due time! I thought that when I very first came across your music in 2019.

[@samhumphreys2004]

Just to think I was in love with Ashley McBryde's voice long before she became famous. Mr. Sheets did amazing with her.

[@2legit64]

I love this. It has the same kind of feel as "Does He Love You" by Reba and Linda Davis. I'm seriously becoming an Ashley McBryde fan. When she sings, it comes from a personal place. You can read her feelings all over her face. And, can we just give props to Ashley for rocking that outfit. It is fierce.

[@amypatrick3716]

Exactly! Am I telling my age when I say I loved/still love Reba/Linda “Does he love you” Ash and Carly have that same but modern vibe!!

I’m obsessed with this song!

[@maggiemay7177]

I’m 16 and may be her youngest super fan, this woman got me through my roughest thing I’ve ever went through with the lyrics that say it all. A pick me up when I have an awful day, the concerts I look forwards to going to. I’ve been to a few of her concerts and they were the best thing I’ve ever experienced because I felt like me in the presence of a woman who saved me and dosent even know I exist. My birthday was last month and for a gift my parents got a painter to paint a portrait of her on a vinyl record and frame it. It sits on my dresser and it’s the first thing I see. My dad posted a photo of me with it on Instagram and she saw it and that was one of the most impactful things I’ve ever had happen to me. I so can’t wait for an opportunity to see her face to face and just tell her how much she’s helped me and got me through the impossible

[@realtalkswitharedhead]

This kinda stuff really matters to ash! She's so human under all that famousness!

[@stephenjennings6444]

Always great when you find a song or artist to connect with like that. Hope things are getting better!

I think I may have to take the youngest superfan title at 11, but she has also helped me in so many amazing ways and it's so surreal. she just seems like such a genuine person, like she could be your friend not to mention her amazing talent
