Southern Stars

This week I had the honor of sitting down with Ana Cristina Cash, the daughter-in-law of Johnny Cash, the talented singer, songwriter, and musician. Ana talks with me about her new Hawaiin Christmas single, Mele Kalikimaka, her relationship with her husband, Johnny Cash Jr., the famous Cash Cabin Recording Studio, and the things she is looking forward to most post-pandemic. 

Kylie Trout released her new single, "Extra", on October 16th. Listen to it here first with an exclusive interview with Kylie to talk about the story behind her song and the relationship that inspired it.

Kylie is a talented 17-year-old country singer-songwriter who is navigating the music industry. Some of her biggest goals include singing on the stage of the Grand Ole Opry where numerous country legends got their start. 

Canadian country artist turned Nashville star, Shae Dupuy, has been rising through the ranks while releasing new music over the course of the pandemic. Her latest single, released on October 2nd, "Selfish", provides a twist on the negative connotation of the word. Showing off her natural talent for songwriting, Shae lets the listener know that sometimes it is okay to be selfish and make time for self care. As she cleverly puts it, "You can't pour from an empty glass." 

Be sure to follow Shae Dupuy on social media and keep an eye out for her upcoming music video!

Southern Stars is back with Jennafer Lynsey! This young artist talks about how learning the music industry was her "college" experience. Getting to know the ins and outs of not only writing, but publicity, social media, photos shoots, and more was a big learning curve. Now, Lynsey is a seasoned pro. Songs featured on this episode include "Rebound", "Past Tense", and her current single, "Click". 

While Jennafer's sound is categorized as pop country and she has been compared to artists such as Kelsea Ballerini, Carly Pearce, Maren Morris, and Taylor Swift, she brings her own unique style to each song that tells a story about what she is going through. 

This week I got to chat with Ashley Taylor, a Bakersfield, CA native who moved to NAshville 5 years ago with the dream of becoming a country singer-songwriter.
