The Girl With the Paloma | Ashley Anne on Nashville, Heartbreak & Finding Her People

Ashley Anne is only 22 years old, but after this conversation, you’ll understand why Nashville is paying attention. And you'll understand why I became a super fan who won't shut up about her. The Generational Heartbreak artist joins That Nashville Girl for one of the most emotional, funny, and honest conversations we’ve had yet — opening up about songwriting, moving to Nashville alone at 18, internet hate comments, friendship loneliness in your 20s, heartbreak, and the stories behind songs like “Paloma,” “Happy Birthday,” and “Phone a Friend.” Ashley also shares: *  the true story behind “Paloma” and the night out with Laci Kaye Booth that inspired it  *  what it felt like when Carly Pearce recorded one of her songs  *  how she built a fan community through honesty  *  and why “pain into power” became her life philosophy  If you’ve ever felt a little uncool, cried to a song in your car, struggled to find your people, or chased a dream that felt impossible… this episode is going to stay with you. And I'm certain I'll be seeing you at an Ashley Anne show soon. Follow Ashley Anne: @ashleyannemusic Don't forget: new episodes drop every Tuesday!

Dirt Bikes, Busking, & Leonardo DiCaprio...This Australian Artist is Taking Nashville By Storm

An Australian artist moves to Nashville after years of dirt bike racing in Tasmania and busking on the streets of Scotland… and somehow the conversation ends with Leonardo DiCaprio. Zoee joins Amanda Adams to talk about the long road from Tasmania to Nashville, the reality of chasing a music career, songwriting, street performing, Taylor Swift, country music, social media burnout, and why modern music lost some of its mystery. Somewhere in the middle, they also discuss: * Australian people trying to say “y’all” * Busking in Glasgow * Nashville’s famous billboard * Live music culture * and Zoee’s very unexpected Leonardo DiCaprio song Zoee feels like the kind of artist Nashville was built for — talented, funny, wildly determined, and impossible to neatly categorize. If you love Nashville stories, country music, emerging artists, music industry conversations, and discovering artists before everyone else catches on, this episode is for you!

Everyone Should Be Talking About Angie K

There are some people you interview and immediately think: “Everyone should know this person.” That was this conversation with Angie K. Before music, Angie worked in a Mustang junkyard pulling engines. She couch surfed across America. Lived in a horse barn. Worked on cruise ships. Auditioned for The Voice and American Idol over and over again until she made it. Met her wife on a cruise ship. And somehow became the voice Disney uses during their nightly fireworks show. And that still barely scratches the surface. This conversation is funny, honest, inspiring, wildly human, and one of my favorite interviews I’ve done in a long time. We talk about music, identity, Nashville, taking chances on yourself, refusing to fit a mold, and why Angie K feels like the kind of artist people become lifelong fans of. Also: her new music is SO good — and she performs “Contigo” live at the end of the episode. You'll have it on repeat all summer!
