Big Loud/Back Blocks’ Ashley Cooke is part of YouTube's Foundry Class of 2022. The all-genre, global artist development program recognizes next generation entertainers for their innovative approach to music and storytelling. Created in 2015, Foundry is YouTube's incubator for independent music, supporting indie artists at all stages of their careers through annual artist development classes and ongoing release support campaigns. Cooke is the only Country artist selected as part of this year's class, alongside 29 other independent artists spanning 15 countries.
“I'm so honored to have been chosen for this incredible opportunity," said Cooke. "The YouTube team has been a champion of my music since day one, and I'm so grateful to be representing Country music in the 2022 class."
