Ashton Shepherd

Ashton Shepherd is back with a new self-penned single. "This is America," was released to Country radio on June 28th. A new album is set for late July as well. "There's also a special surprise duet that I can't wait for everyone to hear," said Shepherd of the album.

About the new single, Shepherd said, "I wrote This is America when I was tired of seeing the negative things in the news, people bickering back and forth, and everyone seeming to be in turmoil and at the same time, knowing that people are in this chaos because the money's runnin' low, though we been workin' real hard. I've been there before. As I wrote this song, the more I realized times are hard and America needs to stick together."

In other Ashton news, the artist will also be joining the ranks of other professional country foodies such as Trisha Yearwood, Little Big Town's Kimberly Schlapman, etc by having her own cooking show, "Cookin' Country" on the Foodie Network Online EWave TV. EWave TV is America's first multi-channel online television network and will air her first episode July 4th at http://foodies.ewave.tv/.
