I just discovered this new female country artist named Ashton Shepherd! If you are a fan of artists like Gretchen Wilson and Sugarland than you will love Ashton too! she has a big voice and her songs have a cutting edge sound that will get you singing her songs all day long! check her out on CMT.com, she's got a new album coming out too!

I like many kinds of music, including some country, but I guess I am not paying attention, since I have never heard of the two that you compare her to...

I am into traditional country, would they fit that mold, or the newer pop/country hybrid stuff?

I just listened to one of my Junior Brown CDs earlier today... too much country for most people that listen to country. :)

I just listened to one of my Junior Brown CDs earlier today... too much country for most people that listen to country. :)Or too much rock-n-roll, bluegrass, or alternative. Junior is a guitar god that transcends musical genres. People can't shoehorn him into any particular style of music, so the masses will never be able to fully appreciate his genius as a musician. I've been lucky enough to see him live on a few occasions over the past 10 years, and he never disappoints.

Wrong forum!

If a country songwriter were also a cyclist the lyrics might go like this:

(Imagine steel guitar and deep country twangy voice)

I took out my trusteeee steeed, as I was ridin' my tire went flat - pumped er up went a few miles, then the dern derailer just blew up! walked er back om, some good ol boys in pick em up truck splashed me twice! By the time I got back, I loaded my steeed in my truck, went in to git a drink, when I come back out, my steeed was a goner. Oh what's a country cyclist to do? My bike got stolen out of the blue.........:-)

Like there aren't 99% off topic threads in the Cafe' :)

I would love to see him live... My guess is that he does an entertaining concert.

I do agree that he has a wide range, but I think most people that listen to his music like country as at least one of the genre's they listen to.

the CD I listened to yesterday was Semi-Crazy, and the Surf Medley would seem like a fun one to listen to for those with more of a mainstream pop preference.

My musical tastes are varied, and I do agree that Junior Brown's CDs do need a category of their own... or a slot in many different categories. :)

Like there aren't 99% off topic threads in the Cafe' :) The Cafe' is for off topic items, but this post sounds too much like spam. The OP has only posted one time and it is a post extolling the virtues of a singer with a website address to check her out? I'm sure that there are hundreds of country music forums out there where this post would be more welcome.

Thanks for the heads-up!

I hadn't looked at the profile of the OP. I usually do look when the post is short and provides a link. Heck, I didn't even pay any attention to the link this time.

I guess it just goes to show that some sucker will fall for any spam. :o

However, Junior Brown still plays excellent music to play while working on your bikes, or doing many other things. :)
