Wyoming, South Dakota, Kansas and Missouri. I’m going to be wearing out the road in the midwest and wild wild west this week. If you’re in those areas I hope you can stop in to see the show. These are new areas for me to tour in so I’m looking forward to meeting new fans and seeing the sites.
Guess what, you can now buy my official tour t-shirts, photos and key chains off my webstore. Just click on the Store tab at the top of the page. New items will be added all the time. So now you can come to my shows already wearing my shirt. Be sure to stop by the merch stand at one of my shows for me to sign it!

Love, Ashton
On The Road Again
7/25/2008 by DBrosius
As of right now, I am rolling on my bus toward Kentucky for a gig. I am watching my little boy pretend he's driving a tractor and my band and I are joking with each other. I have been very busy here lately. I am doing 3 to 4 shows a week sometimes 5. It is so much fun to play for my fans! Each show I am learning more and more.
I just played the Grand Ole Opry on Tuesday night. My little boy and my husband drove up to see me. I was so proud for them to see me play there again. It is always such an honor. I got to do 3 songs. Monday I did a taping for GAC. It was a lot of fun. You'll start seeing it on air in September.
I am truly getting to live a dream. I love to tour but I am looking forward to getting back home. Maybe grill something, get on the river for a day and just turn off the cell phone and relax. That'll be nice. Thanks for checking in with me!!!
Big news!
6/30/2008 by DBrosius
I have been having such a great time touring throughout the summer. I've been visiting my friends at radio and have played all different types of shows. I have dreamed allmy life of being on a major tour and whaddaya know...Sugarland comes forward and offers for me to open up their tour this fall. I jumped up and down, telling my husband first...then calling the rest of my family, so excited. I am still excited. To have such an opportunity to open for such talented people who have worked so hard to get to where they are now is just amazing.
Can't wait to see the fans out there!! We are going to have a ball!!!
Busy Summer & New video!
6/23/2008 by KaitMoore
These last few weeks I've been very busy. I've been touring a good bit. I've been from Alabama to California. I opened for Sugarland last week in Carolina. That was so so fun. I got to bring my little boy with me. That is so great to be able to do. This week I had GAC come down to our little town and film me around home. They even went to my home town where I grew up. I'm looking forward to seeing how it will turn out and I can't wait for people to get to see more about who I am. And last but not least……my new video for my new single "Sounds So Good" is out now. Don't forget to vote for it and request it at radio. I am very excited about the rest of the summer touring I'll be doing, getting to interact with you, the fans. All is going so very well. Thanks for checking in.
Sounds So Good
6/23/2008 by Skirkham
hey everyone. i just shot my video for my new single “Sounds So Good.” The video shoot was so much fun.
Here is a picture of the director Roman and I sharing a laugh. We shot it right outside of my hometown of Coffeyville. It was just like being out on a summer day hanging out, fishing, riding, and playing music with my family. It was a little hot but, hey, when it's summer it always is. We shot so many different wonderful scenes with my little boy and my family. I am so excited for people to get to see another piece of me. And I hope it looks as natural as it felt to shoot. Thanks for checking in! Hope to see you at CMA Fest on Friday!!!
Some Well-Deserved Time At Home
5/12/2008 by DBrosius
I have had the greatest last couple of weeks. I've been enjoying being at home. I've gotten to visit family, cook on the grill, etc. I've played with my little boy everyday. We get under the water hose, ride the 4-wheeler, we've had a blast. There's nothing better than relaxing at home. It's been really great for me to feel like a normal Momma and wife for a little while by cooking and cleaning and washing clothes rather than traveling so much (well..maybe I haven't cooked that much). That's about it. Thanks for checking in! Looking forward to getting back on the road and singing to y'all.

Grand Ole Opry Live
4/29/2008 by DBrosius
I got to perform on the Grand Ole Opry live for the 1st time. I've performed there but not for the live TV show on GAC. It was so awesome! I was more nervous for the Opry than anything else. What a place! My family was with me that whole trip. My little boy and my family were so excited to be there as were the ones back home watching. I felt honored as always to be on the Opry and especially Opry Live. My family and I went to the zoo that same week....ate out a lot...we all enjoyed it so much. As of now...I'm enjoying my time at home. That's all for now. ttyl@@!!
I (heart) NYC
4/22/2008 by DBrosius
I got to be on GOOD MORNING AMERICA! I was nervous all morning while getting make-up done and all. But when I hit the stage and saw the crowd cheering and seeming to like me, I felt relieved. Getting to meet Diane Sawyer and Robin Roberts, two people that I’ve seen on TV all my life, was really cool.
New York was something else to see. It was my 1st time there. I rode a subway for the 1st time, went to Ground Zero, ate at a great Italian restaurant, walked the streets and ate "street food", walked through Central Park...it was really fun.
I think everybody should visit New York they get the chance.
My 1st Live TV appearance!
4/18/2008 by DBrosius
My 1st live TV was the CMT Music Awards. What a feeling to know that the industry plus millions of fans were watching me sing my song! I wasn't terribly nervous but when I heard the music playing my heart started beating so hard I could feel it on my shirt. I got to meet and spend some time with Keith Urban. He was very genuine and very nice. I also got to meet Kenny Chesney for the 1st time. It was just GREAT!
No April Fools - it's a new blog from Ashton

Hey everybody! My last couple of weeks have been great. I spent nearly two of them out in California. I got to see Monterey Bay. It was sooo pretty. I got to do a few St. Jude events that were just great and for such a good cause. These last few days I've been enjoying home and visiting my family. I'm very excited about where I am right now and even more excited for the future! Thanks for checking out my blog!!! And keep checking in for more updates!!

Street Week For Ashton
3/6/2008 by UMGNashMod
Hey everybody! MY ALBUM CAME OUT THIS WEEK!!! I am over the top...so excited about it!!! I’ve been very busy this week doing all kinds of newspapers and press stuff. All that important media! All of my family has been super excited and so supportive buying my cds! I’ve got to meet a lot of radio guys that have been really supportive and I’ve got to meet some more of the stars like Billy Currington, Miranda Lambert, Taylor Swift, and Blake Shelton...to name a few. It’s the most awesome experience to get to meet people you look up to. All is well with me. I’m really happy right now with everything. And I’m crossing my fingers hoping that people will go out and buy my record and spread the word about it so that people will get a chance to hear the songs I’ve written about who I am and where I come from!! Ya’ll feel free to go out and buy it!!!
Guess Who Ashton Met This Week?
2/6/2008 by Kaplan
Hey everybody! This week has slowed down a little for me. I came home from Las Vegas Sunday night. Las Vegas was really fun. I really enjoyed getting to play for all the radio guys there. I also got to meet George Strait for the very 1st time! It was very exciting to meet such a legend. Earlier in that week I was traveling for some retail promotions with Target, Best Buy, Wal-Mart and K-mart stores for the album coming out in just a few short weeks (March 4th)!! This week I head off for Albany, NY. Then I have a small vacation. Which...is just enjoying being home. All is very well here. I feel very blessed. Thanks for stopping by and reading my blog!!

My folks are going to be so proud! AND.....I have a little spot with Storme Warren on Country Music Across America running on GAC all this weekend and the following week! I’m sooo excited about it! Ya’ll make sure to tune in! I’ve also been rehearsing this week for my first full band gig that I will play in Norfolk, Virginia this Saturday. I’ve been having a ball!
