Ashley Monroe is one of Nashvilles most respected and influential voices whose work has helped shape modern country music from the inside out. Over a career spanning nearly 25 years, shes earned GRAMMY nominations, widespread critical acclaim, and the admiration of her peers through both her solo catalog and her work with Pistol Annies.Her recent music marks a bold new chapter of creative clarity and emotional honesty. On her surprise-released album Dear Nashville, written and produced alongside Luke Laird, Monroe turns inward, exploring her complicated relationship with the town that built her. The eight-song concept album captures the tension between deep love for country music and the emotional toll of the industry, delivered with the unfiltered perspective that has long defined her songwriting.With more new music continuing to emerge, Monroe remains as vital as everan artist still evolving, still telling the truth, and still finding new ways to be heard.Twenty years after moving to Nashville, Charlie Worsham has established himself as one of Music Citys most respected artists: a singer-songwriter, producer, award winning instrumentalist, podcast host, and collaborator. With Once Upon a Second Time Around, he reflects on a life he once dreamed of and realizes he is already living it.Raised in Mississippi on bluegrass, country, and rock & roll, Worsham brings those influences together in a deeply personal album shaped by marriage, fatherhood, friendship, and personal growth. Created after stepping away from the major-label system, the project embraces creative freedom and authenticity over commercial expectations.Rather than chasing trends, Worsham focused on crafting a complete album centered on strong songwriting, musicianship, and honest performances. The songs explore gratitude, resilience, and second chances, ranging from intimate acoustic moments to expansive bluegrass and southern rock arrangements.A two-time ACM Acoustic Guitar Player of the Year and the 2024 CMA Musician of the Year, Worsham delivers his most personal work yet: an album that celebrates growth, perspective, and appreciating what is already in front of him.Please Note: All Sales Final.
