Ashley McBryde's "Rattlesnake Preacher" Arrives June 26 Following Fan Demand

After closing out her second year of co-hosting CMA Fest with an electrifying performance at Nissan Stadium Sunday night – including a “scintillating” rendition of fan-favorite “Rattlesnake Preacher,” as praised by Tennessean– Ashley McBryde announces the long-awaited studio version of the live staple, available on June 26 via Warner Music Nashville. Pre-save “Rattlesnake Preacher” HERE.
 
“‘Rattlesnake Preacher’ has been a staple in our live show since the bar days, and we’ve constantly been asked by fans when it’ll make it onto a record,” shares McBryde. “As we were gearing up for my second year of co-hosting CMA Fest, it felt like the perfect time to finally get this one out there. It’s my way of saying thank you to the fans who have shown up, listened and gave this song life long before it was ever recorded.”
 
The forthcoming track also holds personal significance for McBryde. Written by her late friend and collaborator Randall Clay, the release of “Rattlesnake Preacher” also honors his legacy.
 
“I’ve written nearly every song on all my records, so when I cut one I didn’t write, it means something,” shares McBryde. “Randall was part of a group of songwriters that helped me write some of the most formative songs of my career, and his songs will always find a home with me to continue his legacy.”
 
Produced by John Osborne, McBryde was joined by her band Deadhorse in the studio to capture the same energy the track emanates when performed live. Opening with searing fiddle and white-hot electric guitar, the Arkansas native’s vocals soar:

Last month, McBryde enjoyed a full-circle moment, receiving her Honorary Doctorate of Music from her alma mater Arkansas State University. You can find Doctor McBryde on the road this summer with headlining shows across the U.S. among festival dates at Country Stampede, Country Thunder Wisconsin, WE Fest and more, before joining Little Big Town and Dwight Yoakam on select dates.

Ashley McBryde Receives Doctorate of Music from Alma Mater Arkansas State University

Ashley McBryde joined Arkansas State’s Spring 2025 Commencement Ceremony this morning, Saturday May 10, to receive her Honorary Doctorate of Music, with Chancellor Todd Shields recognizing that her “determination and contributions to American Music is a testament to the opportunities that higher education can open and inspire for generations of Arkansas State University alums.” Watch McBryde receive her Doctorate of Music HERE and transcription of her remarks below:

“Earning a degree in music has always been something I've placed a lot of value in. It was something I felt I needed to accomplish. In my time here at A-State, I found my passion not only for performing, but for creating other musicians. The music education program is priceless. I'm so thankful for educators that pushed me to strive for excellence: Greg and Hope Bruner, Robin Dauer, Ed Alexander, Doctor Ken Carroll, Doctor Tom O'Connor and so many more. While my path to music education wound up looking a little different than a traditional one, I never lost my passion for music education, and I work alongside music educators every chance I get. Thank you for shaping me into the advocate I became, the musician I am today and the entrepreneur I didn't know I was going to have to be.

There are doctors in my family, Doctors of Medicine, so I know that when you address someone by that word, you're acknowledging their rank. You're acknowledging a lifetime – time, money, effort, everything they've got that they've spent in pursuit of excellence in their chosen field. The residencies, internships, fellowships, the many accomplishments and the many failures it takes to accomplish them. I have dedicated my life to the pursuit of and the magic of making music, and hopefully I will inspire others to do so.

This stage became my classroom. Board proficiencies were in rooms of tens and then one hundreds and then thousands - those are hard to pass. I've been judged on late night TV shows, morning talk shows, award shows. Those are especially hard to pass because all of social media is there to give you a pass or fail grade on the spot. The people making remarks are the icons and legends of my field, and they just so happen to be names you're familiar with: Wynonna Judd, Vince Gill, Hank Williams Jr. My classmates were Luke Combs, Kacey Musgraves, Chris Stapleton, Jon Pardi – it sounds like I'm name dropping, but these are the people I went into the trenches with.
 
I left this campus as a broke, guitar playing, songwriting chick who played in bars for a living, and I stand here today as a GRAMMY-Award winning songwriter. A member of the Grand Ole Opry. And I look forward to being introduced on that sacred stage this week as Dr. Ashley McBryde. Thank you so much.”

McBryde will perform at Opry 100 Honors: Loretta Lynn this Tuesday, May 13. She’s set to perform at CMA Fest at Nissan Stadium; Country Thunder Wisconsin and Alberta; WE Fest; and more festivals this summer among headlining dates. She will also join Little Big Town in West Palm Beach, FL and Orange Beach, AL in August. For tickets and additional information, visit AshleyMcBryde.com.

About Ashley McBryde
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.” 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 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 earned McBryde her third consecutive GRAMMY nomination for Best Country Album, making her a six-time nominee. Her latest album The Devil I Know was released to critical acclaim, earning a title as one of the best country albums of the year from Rolling Stone, Billboard, Slate, PASTE, Holler and more. Hailed as “one of country’s most cherished singer-songwriters” by Cowboys & Indians, McBryde offers poetic nostalgia with “Ain’t Enough Cowboy Songs,” available now. The Arkansas native performs at festivals including CMA Fest; Country Thunder Wisconsin and Alberta; WE Fest; and Country Stampede among additional headlining dates.

Ashley McBryde to Receive Honorary Doctorate in Music from Arkansas State University

Grand Ole Opry member Ashley McBryde picked up her first guitar as a young girl and began crafting songs by the age of 12. Her passion for music grew as she joined her high school marching band, playing trumpet and French horn. Later, she attended Arkansas State University studying music with the intention of becoming a band director – until a professor encouraged to pursue her dream of being an artist. Now the GRAMMY Award winner is coming full circle as she is set to receive an Honorary Doctorate in Music from her alma mater.
 
“Everybody called my dad Doc and everybody called his dad Doc. I always wondered what that felt like - the pride that filled their chests when they were addressed by that title,” shares McBryde. “I am beyond grateful and so humbly honored to be recognized by my Alma Mater with a Doctorate in Music. To know I now carry that title in a field that has been my life's passion and purpose is a feeling I will cherish forever.”
 
“Arkansas State University is incredibly proud of Ashley McBryde, and I am honored she is part of our ‘Red Wolf Pack,’” shares Todd Shields, Chancellor at Arkansas State. “Her courage to pursue her dreams, her exceptional accomplishments, and the positive influence she has among so many people are deeply inspiring. She absolutely deserves this recognition, and I am very excited to award her the title of Dr. McBryde.” 
 
McBryde will attend Arkansas State’s Spring 2025 Commencement Ceremony at First National Bank Arena on May 10 in Jonesboro, Ark. to be recognized for her achievements and accept her Honorary Doctorate in Music.

Written by McBryde with Chris Harris and Patrick Savage and produced by John Osborne, she recently released “Ain’t Enough Cowboy Songs” via Warner Music Nashville, with Billboard observing the song as “a sterling, introspective look…at the values that embody a ‘cowboy song,’” while Tennessean notes “its creation relates well to the legacy of Kristofferson, the artist she honored at the CMA Awards.”
 
“Ashley McBryde is a truly special artist. She’s fundamentally an old-school country singer, and when she focuses on that, she’s one of the best we’ve got,” asserts  Stereogum, as American Songwriter affirms “Ain’t Enough Cowboy Songs” finds “McBryde in top form.”
 
McBryde is set to perform at Stagecoach, WE Fest, Peach Jam and Country Thunder festivals in Arizona, Florida, Wisconsin and Alberta among headlining dates this spring and summer. For tickets and additional information, visit AshleyMcBryde.com.

Ashley McBryde Rides Toward the Spirit of the West with "Ain't Enough Cowboy Songs"

Lauded as “one of the best artists in present-day country” by Stereogum, Ashley McBryde releases an ode to the spirit of the west and the values that shaped it with “Ain’t Enough Cowboy Songs,” available now via Warner Music Nashville. Listen below.
 
“Cowboys are the ones doing what needs to be done before it is an emergency,” McBryde shared with Cowboys & Indians. “If you would simply be where you are, do what you say you’re gonna do and mean what you say when you say it, it would simplify a lot of things.”
 
Produced by John Osborne, “Ain’t Enough Cowboy Songs” swells with longing from the very first stroke across the fiddle strings – a fitting introduction as McBryde and cowriters Chris Harris and Patrick Savage explored a shared sense of something missing, along with a desire for meaning and reconnection in a changing world.
 
“This one was all about where we live and the genre we love and realizing that the horse I rode in on got put out to pasture,” McBryde explained. “Instead of us saying, ‘Work ethic’s out the window, stick-to-it code’s pretty much dead and idealism is gone,’ it was easier to say that by saying there is no wild out west. That’s all gone.”

Next week, McBryde will head to Las Vegas where she will join 23-time Women’s Professional Rodeo Association World Champion Roper Jackie Crawford for a Q&A session at Ariat’s Las Vegas brand shop on Thursday, Dec. 12, followed by an acoustic performance. Additional details available HERE.
 
On Friday, Dec. 13, she will perform with Cody Johnson at MGM Grand Garden Arena before joining him for his Leather Deluxe Tour in 2025 among festival dates at Stagecoach, Country Thunder Arizona, Country Thunder Florida, Country Thunder Wisconsin and more.

Ashley McBryde Searches for Connection Among Lost Legends & Empty Horizons with "Ain't Enough Cowboy Songs" on 12/6

Hailed as “country’s most down-to-earth songwriter” by The New York Times, CMA Female Vocalist of the Year nominee Ashley McBryde offers poetic nostalgia with “Ain’t Enough Cowboy Songs,” set for release Friday, December 6 via Warner Music Nashville. Pre-save/pre-add HERE.
 
Written by McBryde with Chris Harris and Patrick Savage, “Ain’t Enough Cowboy Songs” emerged from a shared feeling of loss and a desire to reconnect with timeless principles, longing for meaning and clarity in a changing world.

“In the last several years, we’ve all been feeling like something is missing. I noticed it in myself and then noticed it in most people I came in contact with. And we don’t always know how to articulate it,” McBryde admits. “For us, this song helped us do that. We are all starving to reconnect with the things that made us who we are. Sometimes that comes as our sense of justice and duty, maybe for some of us it’s work ethic, for some of us it’s a sense of community.
 
“When we got together to write, the three of us realized the cowboys we looked up to growing up made us want to be the way that we are – the music associated with them and the lives they lead,” she explains. “Those things fully embodied what I am starving for. There’s no substitute for hard work, resilience, kindness, standing up for and with folks in their weaker moments. There’s no substitute for knowing when to take it on the chin and when to give it. And no matter what else we may try to fill that hole with…there ain’t enough of it to ever resemble the real thing.”

Ashley McBryde Performs on ABC's "Good Morning America" + "GMA3" Tomorrow, 8/7

Following her hosting duties for ABC’s CMA Fest special, GRAMMY award winner Ashley McBryde is set to perform her current single “The Devil I Know” on “Good Morning America” and album closer “6th of October” on “GMA3: What You Need To Know” tomorrow, August. 7.
 
“Ashley McBryde writes about the outcasts – the best characters in her songs are downtrodden, stuck, and determined as ever. ‘The Devil I Know’ is an anthem for all of them,” lauds Vulture, naming the title track from her critically acclaimed album as one of the best songs of the year.
 
“6th of October” was written with Blue Foley and CJ Field after the passing of one of McBryde’s longtime collaborators, Randall Clay, with Field bringing in a song he’d started with Clay. The track has since become a celebration of self-compassion among her fans, with Billboard sharing “acceptance and self-assuredness flows particularly on album closer ‘6th of October,’” while Arkansas Democrat-Gazette calls it “bittersweet, John Prine-ish.”
 
Named one of the best country albums of the year by Rolling Stone, Billboard, Slate, Paste, Holler and more, the cover art for The Devil I Know includes five representations of the different facets of McBryde’s personality: Joan of Arkansas, the Golden Gal, Girl in Red, Blackout Betty and Ashley Damn McBryde. To celebrate each one, McBryde compiled playlists of her songs from each persona, with the full collection titled Meet the Family.
 
McBryde recently wrapped The Devil I Know Tour Presented by Ariat and will perform headlining dates across the U.S. through the summer before joining Cody Johnson on The Leather Tour this fall. For additional dates and tickets, visit AshleyMcBryde.com.

About Ashley McBryde
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.” 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.

Ashley McBryde Earns International Bluegrass Music Association Nod for Song of the Year with Sister Sadie's "Willow"

Lauded by Los Angeles Times as “one of Nashville’s most reliable and sophisticated songwriters,” Grand Ole Opry member Ashley McBryde earns a nomination from the International Bluegrass Music Association for Song of the Year with “Willow,” marking her first nomination as a sole writer, and performed by eight-time 2024 IBMA nominees Sister Sadie (Deanie Richardson, Gena Britt, Jaelee Roberts, Dani Flowers and Maddie Dalton).
 
“About a decade ago, I had just bought a little Recording King parlor guitar, and I couldn’t wait to write on it,” McBryde explains. “I sat down and out popped ‘Willow.’ It sure felt good to stay connected to my bluegrass roots. Sister Sadie has given this song the best life it could live. Congratulations, ladies!”
 
As longtime friends and co-writers, Flowers reached out to McBryde for any hidden gems she had available, immediately sharing “Willow.”
 
“I remember Ashley working on this song years ago when we were roommates and have always loved it,” shares Flowers. “I wasn’t aware that she had finished the tune until I joined Sister Sadie, and she sent it to us to consider for our latest record! It became an instant favorite of everyone in the band the second we heard it. Ashley McBryde is truly a master at her craft of songwriting.”
 
“When I first heard ‘Willow,’ I could hear us doing it,” adds Richardson. “I could hear Jaelee slaying this tune vocally. I could hear this funky groove that came to life in the studio. It’s got a deep pocket and has been a crowd favorite out on tour.”
 
“We’re so thrilled to have been given the opportunity to bring this song to life and to the world,” shares the bluegrass supergroup. “We were extra excited to learn about its nomination for Song of the Year at this year's IBMA awards and to share the nomination with our honorary 'sister' Ashley!”
 
Found on their album No Fear, which received a nod for IBMA’s Album of the Year, McBryde is also a co-writer and featured on “Ode to the Ozarks.” As frequent collaborators, she also co-wrote their GRAMMY nominated song “Something to Lose” with Flowers and Terri Jo Box from 2018’s Sister Sadie II.
 
Following her hosting duties for ABC’s CMA Fest special, McBryde has headlining dates across the U.S. through the summer before joining Cody Johnson on The Leather Tour this fall. For additional dates and tickets, visit AshleyMcBryde.com.

About Sister Sadie
Sister Sadie, which launched in the wake of an ostensibly one-off show at Nashville’s World Famous Station Inn in 2012, has both embraced and transcended its all-female identity, earning acclaim that includes being named as the International Bluegrass Music Association’s Entertainer of the Year in 2020, as well as Vocal Group of the Year in 2019, 2020 and 2021. Members range from acclaimed veterans to rising newcomers, who have won individual recognition, too, with founding member and fiddle player Deanie Richardson named as Fiddle Player of the Year in 2020 and banjo player/vocalist Gena Britt — SPBGMA’s reigning Banjo Player of the Year — having participated in three award-winning collaborative projects. The lineup is rounded out by 2021 IBMA Momentum Vocalist of the Year and Mountain Home recording artist Jaelee Roberts (guitar), Dani Flowers (vocals and guitar) and bassist Maddie Dalton, winner of one of IBMA’s Momentum Instrumentalist of the Year Awards in 2023. The band’s previous release, Sister Sadie II, earned them a GRAMMY nomination for Best Bluegrass Album in 2019.

Ashley McBryde Performs "The Devil I Know" on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon"

GRAMMY award winner and Grand Ole Opry member Ashley McBryde performed the title track from her critically acclaimed album The Devil I Know via Warner Music Nashville on NBC’s “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” yesterday, Thursday, December 7.

“Ashley McBryde writes about the outcasts – the best characters in her songs are downtrodden, stuck and determined as ever. ‘The Devil I Know’ is an anthem for all of them,” Vulture observes of the only country song on their top 10 “Best Songs of 2023,” while praising “McBryde knows the power of saying just enough — like painting a toxic relationship as ‘suitcase marks on a hardwood floor’ — and when to let everything boil over, which she expresses in a fiery chorus.”
 
“Arkansas native McBryde has deeply entrenched unflinching, blue-collar honesty as her trademark brand in country music,” boasts Tennessean, as Variety opines of the album, “the faithful already knew it would be one of the genre’s most satisfying efforts in 2023, even before she actually delivered on that promise with emotional ballads like ‘Light in the Kitchen,’ pure barnburners like ‘Made for This,’ or actual heart-destroyers like ‘Learned to Lie.’”
 
“The album’s songs are infectious and assured…Lyrically, they’re tighter than a bowline knot, bursting with colorful details,” boasts Garden & Gun, as Holler praises, “Once again weaving together country ditties, rock-tinged rompers and biker-bar riffs, with The Devil I Know, Ashley McBryde has plotted out an all-encompassing journey. The record features arena-sized regrets, a couple of classic country odes and a few bouts of bold and visceral vulnerability.”
 
As she gears up to close out the U.S. portion of the first leg of The Devil I Know Tour Presented by Ariat among multiple sold-out dates, McBryde will make a triumphant soon-to-be-sold-out return to the U.K. and Ireland at the top of the year. The second leg will kick off February 22 in Charleston, S.C. with tickets available at AshleyMcBryde.com.
 
Fans can watch McBryde perform “You’re A Mean One, Mr. Grinch” with Lindsey Stirling on CMA Country Christmas airing Thursday, December 14 at 8pm ET on ABC and Friday, December 15 on Hulu and Disney+.

GRAMMY award winner and Grand Ole Opry member Ashley McBryde will bring the title track from her critically acclaimed album The Devil I Know via Warner Music Nashville to NBC’s “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” tomorrow, Thursday, December 7.
 
Lauded as “the latest reminder of how special a mainstream country star McBryde is” and named one of the “Best Songs of 2023 (So Far)” by Vulture, “The Devil I Know” finds the Arkansas native “showing off the country-rock chops that, if this industry were fair, would lead her to play this song in arenas just like fellow mavericks Chris Stapleton and Eric Church.”
 
Of the album, Rolling Stone observes, “It’s a startling snapshot of a songwriter at the peak of her abilities,” while Variety opines, “the faithful already knew it would be one of the genre’s most satisfying efforts in 2023, even before she actually delivered on that promise with emotional ballads like ‘Light in the Kitchen,’ pure barnburners like ‘Made for This,’ or actual heart-destroyers like ‘Learned to Lie.’”

About Ashley McBryde
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 her chart-climbing single “Light On In The Kitchen” from her latest critically acclaimed album, The Devil I Know. McBryde is currently on her headlining The Devil I Know Tour Presented by Ariat and heads to the U.K. at the top of the year before kicking off the second U.S. leg in February 2024.

Grand Ole Opry member Ashley McBryde announces additional dates to The Devil I Know Tour Presented by Ariat, kicking off the second leg Feb. 22 in Charleston, S.C. with 30 more dates scheduled across the U.S. through June 2024. The TRYBE presale will begin tomorrow, Nov. 14 at 10am local time, while public on sale will begin this Friday, Nov. 17 at 10am local time at AshleyMcBryde.com.

As a longtime fan of Ariat, McBryde and the brand have partnered since 2018. “It has been exciting to watch Ashley’s career grow over the past five years, and we couldn’t be more proud to support her headlining tour,” said Susan Alcala, VP Partnership Marketing at Ariat.
 
Named one of the most highly anticipated albums by both Los Angeles Times and Vulture, with the former naming her “one of Nashville’s most reliable and sophisticated songwriters,” The Devil I Know via Warner Music Nashville finds McBryde honing her calling card even further, as American Songwriter boasts, “Her lyrics can be heartrendingly tender one song, then unflinchingly biting the next.”
 
“More ruminative than crazed, the Saddle, Arkansas-born ragged rock/country songwriter delivers an exhale of acceptance that the chase is as much the reward as superstardom. Rather than raging against what’s not happening, she delivers a clear-eyed celebration of how alive being in the moment feels,” opines HITS, as Garden & Gun asserts, “The Devil I Know… could—and should—catapult her from being one of Music City’s favorite songwriters to its newest arena headliner. The album’s songs are infectious and assured.”
 
Last week, the Arkansas native earned a standing ovation for her performance of lead single and Music Video of the Year nominee “Light On In The Kitchen” at the 57th Annual CMA Awards, with Rolling Stone calling it “one of the most heartfelt moments of the evening,” that “cut through like a vital hymn full of homespun wisdom,” while Washington Post observed, “Ashley McBryde’s rendition of ‘Light On In the Kitchen’ was captivating as she was surrounded by glowing chandeliers.”
 
McBryde is currently on the first leg of The Devil I Know Tour Presented by Ariat with nine more dates in 2023 before a triumphant soon-to-be sold-out return to the U.K. and Ireland at the top of the year. For additional dates and information, visit AshleyMcBryde.com.

Last week, McBryde released “Cool Little Bars,” a song she wrote with Lainey Wilson and Trick Savage, that pays tribute to the dive bars, holes in the wall and often locals-only establishments that shaped the early days of her career, with American Songwriter calling it a “catchy ditty that features the presence of harmonica to add a nostalgic feel.”
 
Climbing the charts in the top 25, “Light On In The Kitchen” earned placement on Rolling Stone’s all-genre “Best Songs of 2023 So Far,” praising the lead single as a “gorgeous tribute to the women who helped shape her” with “luminous guitars and McBryde’s tender delivery,” while “Learned To Lie” landed on Rolling Stone’s “Best Country Songs of 2023 So Far” noting, “Ashley McBryde tracks the lineage of an inveterate liar with clinical precision…her sneakily brilliant writing will floor you by song’s end.”
 
Title track “The Devil I Know” was named as one of Vulture’s “Best Songs of 2023 (So Far),” boasting, “McBryde still hasn’t lost her edge, showing off the country-rock chops that, if this industry were fair, would lead her to play this song in arenas just like fellow mavericks Chris Stapleton and Eric Church,” while album opener “Made For This” is a “guitar-heavy song accented by fast-paced drums has a rock vibe,” observes American Songwriter.

Ashley McBryde Releases “Cool Little Bars” from Highly Anticipated THE DEVIL I KNOW

As GRAMMY award winner Ashley McBryde gears up for the release of The Devil I Know on September 8 via Warner Music Nashville, the Grand Ole Opry member revisits her roots with the release of “Cool Little Bars,” paying tribute to the dives, holes in the wall and often locals-only establishments that shaped the early days of her career. Listen to the song and pre-add/pre-save The Devil I Know HERE.
 
“As y’all know, I have a huge appreciation for bars that have stood the test of time and have a lot of character,” shares McBryde. “I played them for many, many years, and I’m proud of the education I gained, and I’m proud to be able to give such bars credit for my entertainment style.
 
“In a time when so many of our staple establishments are being torn down to make room for far less charming, sterile and predictable gathering spaces, I thought we’d better celebrate the ones we have left and the ones we’ve yet to warm a seat in. With the help of Trick Savage and Lainey Wilson, I think we said it pretty good. So, thank you for dart boards, sticky table tops, bathrooms with broken stall doors and bartenders that can mix a drink while whoopin’ an ass. We see you and we need you. God bless cool little bars.”
 
Written by McBryde with Savage and Wilson, today’s release highlights what makes a place special along with the desire to see them persevere and provide a space for the misplaced:

Climbing the charts in the top 25, “Light On In The Kitchen” earned placement on Rolling Stone’s all-genre “Best Songs of 2023 So Far,” praising the lead single as a “gorgeous tribute to the women who helped shape her” with “luminous guitars and McBryde’s tender delivery,” calling it “a comfortable crash pad for anyone who might take solace in its messages of support.”
 
The Arkansas native followed with title track “The Devil I Know” featuring “a big Southern-rock chorus with a blast of distorted riffage,” observes Stereogum, and “Learned To Lie,” which landed on Rolling Stone’s “Best Country Songs of 2023 So Far” noting, “When it comes to original sin, the devil lies in the details, especially when you’re a crack storyteller. Ashley McBryde tracks the lineage of an inveterate liar with clinical precision…her sneakily brilliant writing will floor you by song’s end.”
 
Last month, McBryde released album opener “Made for This,” a “guitar-heavy song accented by fast-paced drums,” shares American Songwriter, “as McBryde sings about a strong desire to chase one’s dreams - and the work ethic to back it up.”

McBryde will perform at the Oregon Jamboree Music Festival 2023 in Sweet Home, Oregon this evening and will be on the road throughout the spring and summer for a slew of headlining and festival shows along with tour dates with Jelly Roll and Dierks Bentley.

About Ashley McBryde
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. Upon its release, Ashley McBryde Presents: Lindeville garnered applause from The New York Times, NPR, Variety, Vulture, Esquire, Rolling Stone, Billboard and Stereogum, among many more. With 11 songs all co-written by the Arkansas native, The Devil I Know is set for release on September 8, featuring chart-climbing lead single “Light On In The Kitchen,” along with the recently released title track, “Learned To Lie,” album opener “Made For This” and “Cool Little Bars.” McBryde is currently on the road with headlining shows and festival stops throughout the summer along with dates on Jelly Roll’s Back Road Baptism Tour 2023 and a night with Dierks Bentley at Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colorado before returning to Middle Tennessee for Pilgrimage Festival in Franklin on September 24.

Ashley McBryde Joins “The Jennifer Hudson Show” as “Light On In The Kitchen” Debuts to Critical Acclaim

ASHLEY McBRYDE JOINS “THE JENNIFER HUDSON SHOW”
 
New Single “Light On In The Kitchen” Debuts to Critical Acclaim;
Impacts Country Radio March 27
 
“Ashley McBryde maintains her position as 
country’s most down-to-earth songwriter”
 – The New York Times

Grand Ole Opry member Ashley McBryde joined “The Jennifer Hudson Show” yesterday, March 1 to discuss her latest release, recent GRAMMY win for Best Country Duo/Group Performance for her chart-topping “Never Wanted To Be That Girl” with Carly Pearce and performed an impromptu song based on an audience member’s story.
 
Last week, McBryde debuted her latest single “Light On In The Kitchen” to critical acclaim, with The New York Times praising, “Ashley McBryde maintains her position as country’s most down-to-earth songwriter,” while Rolling Stone observes, “With its gentle, brushed drums and light shadings of mandolin, it’s a delicate ballad that feels ready for radio and the Grand Ole Opry stage but comes with mountains of good advice.”
 
With “Light On In The Kitchen” impacting Country radio on March 27, Billboard boasts, “Is Ashley McBryde capable of writing a less-than-stellar song? It seems not,” calling it “another ace from this singer-songwriter,” as Stereogum notes “McBryde excels at tough-minded character sketches with Southern-rock edges, but she’s also great at this kind of sentimental fare.”
 
The Arkansas native performed in her home state over the weekend and heads back out on the road next week before embarking on a run of additional headlining shows, festivals, two dates at the Grand Ole Opry, three dates with Eric Church on The Outsiders Revival Tour and seven shows with Jelly Roll this spring and summer.

In Ashley McBryde’s perfect world, her critically acclaimed collaborative project Ashley McBryde Presents: Lindeville is best served as a live show.
 
“In my heart, it would be at the Ryman, done in the style of a community theater,” the recent GRAMMY Award winner shared with Esquire upon the album’s release. “To deliver those performances in that way I think would be really beautiful and a lot of fun.”
 
Nearly five months later, McBryde and the cast of Lindeville are fulfilling that dream as they kicked off one of two sold-out shows at Ryman Auditorium yesterday evening, Feb. 15, with POLLSTAR praising, “An ambitious live staging of the quirky, genius small town reality masterclass Ashley McBryde Presents: Lindeville...McBryde takes the caricatures and injects so much humanity into every stereotype.”
 
Joined by Aaron Raitiere, Benjy Davis, Caylee Hammack, Connie Harrington, bandleader John Osborne, Pillbox Patti, Shelly Fairchild and TJ Osborne, McBryde and company displayed not only their songwriting abilities that “resonate on a deep, emotional level” (Stereogum), but their creative chops, creating a musical theater experience based on the GRAMMY-nominated “loose, joy-filled exercise in letting creativity, humor, and friendship serve as one’s muse” (Vulture).
 
Backed by the Lindeville band, McBryde, Hammack and Patti launched into album opener “Brenda Put Your Bra On,” as multiple brassieres were thrown on stage from the audience before the set was interrupted by Jenny as Raitiere took the stage to deliver “Jesus Jenny” “with rakish charm and concern” (Rolling Stone).
 
With the Bluegrass band taking the stage for each jingle, McBryde donned an apron for “Danelion Diner,” followed by Patti’s riveting performance of “The Girl In The Picture,” a heartfelt power ballad for a missing woman named Caroline, with backing vocals from Hammack.
 
Fairchild captured the “wry wit” (Billboard) of “If These Dogs Could Talk” with ease as McBryde provided background vocals from a park bench, accompanied by Pete and his dog from Brothers Osborne’s sentimental ballad, with TJ Osborne’s rich, resonating voice reminding us “go to church, love your momma and ‘Play Ball.’”
 
Queued up by What Fuzz Radio DJ Storme Warren, Raitiere with his avocados and Fairchild in her sparkly top indulged the audience with “a wobbly tale of not-so-singles searching for a little company” (Arkansas Democrat-Gazette) in “The Missed Connection Section of the Lindeville Gazette.”
 
As both a fan and critic favorite, Davis captivated with “total showstopper” and “soulful hymn” (Stereogum)“Gospel Night At The Strip Club,” as a trio of drag queens brought the at-capacity crowd to their feet for the chorus of Hallelujahs, affirming Outsider’s observation: “It’s the spiritual message at the heart of the song that makes it so powerful. It’s a stark reminder that Jesus loves the sinners that so many look down on.”
 
The audience remained on their feet as McBryde returned to the stage with Fairchild, Hammack and Patti for a rousing rendition of “When Will I Be Loved,” followed by “incendiary feminist anthem for small town women everywhere” (Holler) “Bonfire At Tina’s,” with fists pumping in the air with every “light it up.”
 
As McBryde perched solo on a stool, the Arkansas native “ties together the preceding stories into a moment of peaceful clarity” (Billboard) with title track and album closer “Lindeville,” set to a background of stars.
 
Written by the album’s namesake Dennis Linde, the entire cast returned to the stage for a cover of The Chicks’ “Goodbye Earl” as an homage to the songwriter whose methods inspired the entire project.
 
The second sold-out performance of Ashley McBryde Presents: Lindeville Live takes place tonight, Feb. 16 at Ryman Auditorium. Livestream tickets are available HERE via Mandolin, and proceeds will benefit Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation.

Ashley McBryde Brings LINDEVILLE to Life in New Video

ASHLEY MCBRYDE’S “BRENDA PUT YOUR BRA ON”

BRINGS LINDEVILLE TO LIFE 

 Featuring McBryde w/ Caylee Hammack and Pillbox Patti Out Now

Lindeville Lands at # 5 on Rolling Stone’s The 25 Best Country and Americana Albums of 2022, #2 on Billboard’s Best Country Albums of 2022 and

the ONLY Country Album on NPR’s Best Albums of 2022

Lindeville also Earns Top Nods from Billboard on Best Albums of 2022, 

Tennessean’s Best Nashville Albums of 2022, and

Billboard’s The 50 Best Albums of 2022: Staff List 

“Bonfire At Tina’s” Lands at #1 on Paper Magazine’s Best Country Songs of 2022 and

“Gospel Night at the Strip Club” #1 on Billboard’s Best Country Songs of 2022

Up for two GRAMMY Awards including Best Country Album for her critically-acclaimed Ashley McBryde Presents: Lindeville, the Arkansas-native brings the everytown character-laden opening track, “Brenda Put Your Bra On,” to life with its new music video, HERE, featuring album collaborators Pillbox Patti and Caylee Hammack. 
 

Lauded by Slate as one of the best records of 2022, McBryde – and cast – dodge flying objects as Brenda takes her revenge in a video directed by ACM Award Winner Reid Long.

 
“As soon as we recorded this song, we knew we wanted to make a video for it,” McBryde reflects. “It’s the start of the action in Lindeville. There were a lot of ways we could have shot the video, yet Reid had the idea to capture all the insanity and drama in one continuous take, which feels very in tune with the spirit of this entire project…,” before the ACM and CMA Award winner laughingly adds, “how Lindeville of us!”
 
“One of Lindeville’s highlights,” says the Los Angeles Times, “a sparse acoustic number that alternates detailed verses about a club’s various habitués with a moving chorus.” That chorus “is crucial,” asserts PASTE, “because it makes explicit the project’s unifying theme: Everyone is flawed, and everyone is worthy of love and respect despite those flaws. Perhaps we should spend less time hiding our sins and weaknesses, and more time forgiving the same in others.”
 
Marking her third consecutive GRAMMY nomination for Best Country Album, following Warner Music Nashville’s Girl Going Nowhere in 2018 and Never Will in 2020, Ashley McBryde Presents: Lindeville was produced by John Osborne and features performances from Brothers Osborne, Brandy Clark, Aaron Raitiere, Patti, Hammack and Benjy Davis. Landing on Rolling Stone’s all-genre “The 100 Best Albums of 2022,” the project brings them all together “to spin stories of small-town life both heartbreaking and hilarious.”
 
McBryde is also GRAMMY nominated for No. 1 duet and co-write with Carly Pearce, “Never Wanted To Be That Girl.” 
 
McBryde’s 2022 wrapped with her induction as the newest member of the Grand Ole Opry, and in 2023, the Arkansas native invites all to the revered Ryman Auditorium to experience Ashley McBryde Presents: Lindeville Live, featuring the cast of collaborators and special guests performing songs from her critically acclaimed album, February 15 and 16. Tickets are available at AshleyMcBryde.com.

Produced once again by Jay Joyce, Never Will reveals the witty, confessional, detail-driven songwriting addressing a wide spectrum of blue-collar Southern women’s experience introduced on Girl Going Nowhere is still here, but perhaps even sharper. 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.

Ashley McBryde & John Osborne Perform "Gospel Night At The Strip Club" on NBC's "The Tonight Show

ASHLEY McBRYDE AND JOHN OSBORNE PERFORM

“THE TONIGHT SHOW STARRING JIMMY FALLON”

GRAMMY-Nominated Ashley McBryde Presents: Lindeville
Named One of the Best Albums of The Year by

Watch their performance HERE.

Transforming the set with church pews and neon signs, McBryde and Osborne were joined by a small choir to deliver their hymn’s chorus, with Rolling Stone sharing, “The rest of the record tumbles out as more of a spoken word retelling of a night Jesus stopped in at the strip club, took in the stories of the characters all around him, dropped a $20 bill on the counter, and slipped out the door.”

Marking her third consecutive GRAMMY nomination for Best Country Album, following Warner Music Nashville’s
Girl Going Nowhere in 2018 and Never Will in 2020, Ashley McBryde Presents: Lindeville was produced by Osborne and features performances from Brothers Osborne, Brandy Clark, Aaron Raitiere, Pillbox Patti, Caylee Hammack and Benjy Davis. The project has been named one of the best albums of the year by Rolling Stone, Billboard, Stereogum, Tennessean and more.

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 critically acclaimed 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. The Arkansas-native invites listeners to Ashley McBryde Presents: Lindeville, a collaborative new project featuring Brothers Osborne, Brandy Clark, Pillbox Patti, Caylee Hammack, Aaron Raitiere and more, earning McBryde her third consecutive GRAMMY nomination for Best Country Album, while her duet with Pearce received a nod for Best Country Duo/Group Performance, making her a six-time GRAMMY nominee. Upon its release on September 30, Ashley McBryde Presents: Lindeville garnered applause from The New York Times, NPR, Variety, Vulture, Esquire, Rolling Stone, Billboard and Stereogum, among many more. Tickets for the two-night special event Ashley McBryde Presents: Lindeville Live at Ryman Auditorium on February 15-16 are available now. McBryde will be inducted as a member of the Grand Ole Opry on December 10.
