Today’s musicians increasingly find themselves at a crossroad. They find that they must choose between originality and building and maintaining an active fan-base. Typically, success depends on their ability to provide the industry and their listeners with music that is truly unique. To combat this dilemma, the Starkville, Mississippi band Nash Street strives to artfully bridge the gap between country music and traditional bluegrass. Nash Street utilizes the inspiration of influences, such as Chris Thile, The Eagles, Ricky Skaggs, Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, and Allison Krauss, as a pleasant compliment to the soulful melodies of Mississippi and the leisurely rhythm of southern life. In so doing, the quintet provides a hybrid genre of music which is being hailed as “grassroots country”.
Grassroots Country is a self-ascribed title which Nash Street attributes to their love of contemporary country music and bluegrass instrumentation. The band consists of Daniel Hare on upright bass, sisters Hannah and Caroline Melby on fiddle and mandolin respectively, and Clay Lezon on lead guitar, all ranging from ages 19-24. Over the years, Nash Street’s uniqueness has matured as their ability to combine instrumental arrangements and vocal harmony has become more creative. Nash Street has opened for artists such as Rhonda Vincent, The Grascals, Jeff Bates, Little Big Town, and at Tim McGraw's “Swampstock” – an annual concert Tim puts on to benefit his hometown of Rayville, Louisiana. Nash Street recorded their second CD this summer at Ricky Skaggs' studio in Nashville. On January 24, 2008, the band was awarded for their diligence when they won the 2008 Colgate Country Showdown. Nash Street took home $100,000 and the title “Best New Act in Country Music”. It was held in the legendary Ryman Auditorium with host and country music star, Leann Rimes. With such young members, Nash Street’s distinct sound, stage presence, and ability to connect with varying audiences insures that they will become an attractive addition to the country music scene.

Please submit your artist news and events to CountryHome Forum to help your artists to get well known better in Europe. If you do not have the time to submit your artist news and events by yourself, please send it me to: Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de and I will submit them by myself to CountryHome Forum.
I know that many artists from North America don't have their music videos uploaded to German video websites. The most popular websites are MyVideo.de and ClipFish.de. That means your European audience does not have the chance to find them.
I understand that most of you don't speak German and are not able to upload videos because of the language barrier. If you would like me to upload your videos to the German video websites, please let me know.
Thanks
