GRAMMY, CMA and ACM award winner Ashley McBryde cut her teeth playing country songs in biker bars - and it shows. The Grand Ole Opry member’s 2018 major label debut Girl Going Nowhere (Warner Music Nashville) charmed The New York Times, NPR, Rolling Stone, Paste, The Washington Post and more, all en route to landing a GRAMMY nomination for Best Country Album. McBryde closed out 2019 with ACM New Female Artist, CMT Breakout Artist, a New Artist of the Year win at the 53rd Annual CMA Awards and two nominations for the 2020 GRAMMYs for Best Country Song and Best Country Solo Performance for “Girl Goin’ Nowhere.” Her follow-up Never Will was tagged by Rolling Stone as one of the most anticipated of the year alongside NPR, who also ranked her Top 10 RIAA Platinum-Certified single “One Night Standards” as one of the best songs of 2019. The album earned McBryde a 2021 GRAMMY nomination for Best Country Album, making Never Will the only album nominated for Country Album of the Year by the ACMs, CMAs and the Recording Academy in the same award season. Her GRAMMY-winning duet with Carly Pearce, “Never Wanted To Be That Girl,” went all the way to No. 1 and earned McBryde and Pearce the ACM and CMA award for Musical Event of the Year. McBryde was also honored with the 2022 CMA International Artist Achievement Award for the most significant creative growth, development and promotion of the country music industry outside of the United States. Her collaborative project Ashley McBryde Presents: Lindeville featuring Brothers Osborne, Brandy Clark, Pillbox Patti, Caylee Hammack, Aaron Raitiere and Benjy Davis earned McBryde her third consecutive GRAMMY nomination for Best Country Album, making her a six-time GRAMMY nominee. The project earned McBryde her second consecutive nomination for CMA Album of the Year, along with Music Video of the Year for “Light On In The Kitchen” from her latest critically acclaimed album, The Devil I Know.

Folks... this is what modern country music, that's actually COUNTRY, sounds like. GLORIOUS!

[@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.

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!

[@andreagreenwood157]

ASHLEY MCBRIDE YOU ARE THE BEST FEMALE VOCALIST, YOUR TIME AND RECOGNITION IS COMING BABY GIRL.

[@christmarshall740]

[@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!

[@susandias1247]

Exactly!!

[@kathykelly527]

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

[@kellyanderson7624]

never thought I would see a female country singer with tattoos. You go Ashley McBryde!

[@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.

[@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...

[@sharleencronje8132]

What a beautiful and haunting performance!

[@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. ❤

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

[@TheRedone2012]

They both did a fantastic job. There’s just something about Ashley’s voice. It has that special something that I can’t describe. Love the song.

[@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!!

Ashley is such a breath of fresh air.

[@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
