Ashton Shepherd answers fans questions, including where the concept for the Look It Up video came from, her favorite subject in high school, what career she would have if she wasn’t a singer/songrwiter, the charities she supports, and how real life experiences affect her music. Ashton’s new album, Where Country Grows, is in stores now.
“…her debut, Sounds So Good, was one of the best country releases of 2008. Where Country Grows is even better …Alabama spitfire matches killer voice to immaculate tunes…She can be as rugged as Miranda Lambert and Jamey Johnson, and sings better than each.” – Rolling Stone
“Among strong, young hardcore-country women, Miranda Lambert is Ashton’s only real competition,” – Entertainment Weekly
“Shepherd has a voice that is instantly recognizable – a sharp twang that she brandishes like a weapon. On her new single ‘Look It Up,’ she uses it to send an unfaithful man crawling to the dictionary: ‘You said you’re sober? Look it up. It’s right next to ‘hell is freezing over,’ ‘flying pigs’ and all that stuff.’” – The Washington Post
“Shepherd is a rare talent; Shepherd co−wrote “I’m Good” with master country songwriter Dean Dillon and impressive traditional songwriter Dale Dodson. The result ranks with country anthems by Tammy Wynette and Reba McEntire. It proves Shepherd can rank among the best of her generation, when applying her strong voice to songs as powerful as this.” – Associated Press
“Country Music is alive….and her name is Ashton Shepherd!” – Music News Nashville
