Rachel Neal – Jam w/Jason Interview - CDF Music Group

Rachel Neal stopped into the CDF studio for a full session — two unreleased original songs and a sit-down conversation about how she got here. She picked up the guitar at 24, wrote her first song, and has not slowed down since. Three singles out, a Nashville recording trip on the books, a headlining show at Charles City Theater, and an opening slot for Thompson Square and David Nail at a benefit concert in Rhinelander. She also performed Am I a Cowgirl If I Cry live for the first time with a full band at the Midwest Country Music Organization Awards. Both songs performed today — Cute and 17 — are unreleased originals recorded here first. @rachelnealmusic A huge thank you to Thalia Capos for supporting CDF Music Group.
