THIS WEEK'S FEATURED ARTIST • MORGAN ASHLEY Hailing from College Station, Morgan Ashley grew up raising cattle and barrel racing. After taking 3rd place at an FFA Talent show and being the only one that didn’t play guitar, she decided to pick up the guitar that sat in the corner of her room for years and hasn’t put it down since! The Texas Music bug hit hard, and she knew that she belonged on a stage somewhere in Texas, playing the music she grew up loving and introducing her fans to her own unique brand. Morgan has since had five successfully charted songs to Texas Radio at Top 40 or higher and she also just won the 2021 New Female Vocalist Award with the Texas Regional Radio Music Awards! She is now in the Top 30 with a song for all girls that finally get the courage to tell “Mr. Wrong” where to go.
This is her newest release BACK TO AUSTIN
