"She shut that front door for the last time. Like a caged bird who’s been waiting to fly. Small town same job circles end where they start. Compass due west to follow her heart. She can’t let her dreams sit on a shelf.You’ve got to get lost to find life for yourself"-from the song She's gone by Tiffany Ashton by Eric D.Graham
Congratulations!!!! to Tiffany Ashton, from Winston-Salem, NC for winning the Best Female Country Artist at the (2017) at the Carolina Music Awards, whic...h was held at the Duke Energy Center for Performing Arts, downtown Raleigh, on Saturday, August 5.
Most of those in attendence, however, were not shocked when her name was called.
Because, Ashton had already been named the Best Country Artist by the Hollywood Music and Media Awards and dubbed Music Row's Renegade Radio New Face of Country as well.
Ashton, who is much more than a pretty face, had a lot of people doing a double-take during the Red carpet due to her beautiful Tangerine-colored evening gown.
When aksed about being possibly promoted for her "looks" rather than her talent, she quickly said that eventhough, physcial appearance plays a role in marketing-the main focus should always be on the voice.
"As an artist, the focus should be on the voice.." said the young country singer, who has already written two albums entitled Southern Sweetheart and Adrenaline Crush.
" It (the focus) should be on the songwriting and on the musicianship."
If anyone is still questioning Tiffany's talent, she has already shared the stage with artists like the Country Music Awards Vocal Duo of the Year-Brother Osborne, LoCash, Luke Combs, Bucky Convington, Cimorelli, Natalie Stovall and Mac Powell of 3rd Day to name a few. Plus, she is currently on tour now, while trying to obtain a degree in Economics at UNC-Charlotte.
"Education is something no one can take away from you" said the Southern Belle, who is a member of the Recording Academy as well as a Grammy voter.
"Especially, with Economics, its goes hand and hand with what I am doing in music. Because, there is a whole economic and marketing side to business...it is so incorporated."
With her Miss America "good-looks," educational background, and strong songwriting skills, Tiffany Ashton is quickly becoming a triple threat in the World of Country music,while establishing a global brand with a fan club from the US, the UK, Canada, Spain,Germany, Australia, Norway and Netherlands.
