I admit it, I am not really in with new popular music, with a few exceptions. Lady Gaga, Ariana Grande, Kacey Musgraves and especially Ashley Monroe. 2 of these exceptional artist have never had a no1 on the singles charts. Kacey and Ashley Monroe. How on Earth can that be? Both of them are pure artist with great song writing skills who can tell a great story.
Their sweet voices can melt hearts, and their ability to pick great songs is obvious. It does make me wonder what the country music industry seems to have against these amazing songwriters. I will say this, this shows what a sorry state country music is in when two of the most talented singer, songwriters of this generation haven’t gotten a no1 hit but the BACKSTREET BOYS HAVE! Think about that for a second.
If you haven’t heard these angels, here are some of their wonderful songs.

This is such a beautiful song and autobiographical. Ashley lost her father to suicide when she was 13, she says she cries sometimes when she sings this song. That is Vince Gill on the guitar in the back.
