Press Release

 

The release of three new songs by Canadian independent recording artist Kate Ashby-Craft is a culmination of performing the role of June Carter Cash. For the past several years Ashby-Craft has been performing this role in the musical tribute show "The Legend In Black" which is a tribute to the music of the late Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash. It is while performing this role that Ashby-Craft fell in love with Alternative Country/Americana music and decided she wanted to pursue this genre. Ashby-Craft therefore teamed up with legendary UK Record Producer Charles Foskett to produce three singles in this genre using some of the Who's Who in musicians.

From guitar player, Jerry Donahue (Fairport Convention Elton John), Stand Up Bass, Malcolm Creese (Sting Cleo laine),Drums, Clive Bunker (JethroTull ), Harmonica, Paul Jones (Manfred Man ),Violin, Scarlet Rivera (Bob Dylan, Indigo Girls), and UK singer/songwriter Lauren field on Back Up Vocals.

The first of the three songs "Keep On The Sunnyside" a classic Americana song is also Ashby-Craft's philosophy
"no matter how dark things get...says Ashby-Craft....there is always a brighter side". The second song "Home Lights Shining" is about true love and is great fun to sing. The last song "Wonder Woman" is a powerful ballad that could be every woman's anthem.
