Rolling Stone Loves Ashton Shepherd

It's A Bird! It's A Plane! No? It's Bacon!



Don’t look now y’all, but there is a giant hickory smoked spiral-sliced ham flapping its greasy wings right up there above the trees. What’s the occasion for such porcine shenanigans? The country-hating Rolling Stone has just published a decent-sized POSITIVE focus feature on Ashton Shepherd. They even provide the upcoming album’s title track “Where Country Grows” to listen to in its entirety for free! Awesome!

Check it out HERE!  

It seems oddly possible that they might actually like her. The Inky Jukebox’s jaw is still plastered to the floor. This from a publication whose list of the 100 Best Songs of the last 11 years includes Brad Paisley's "Alcohol" at #92, The Dixie Chicks' "Not Ready To Make Nice" at #77 (?), and Johnny Cash's "Hurt" at #15. The other 97 records consists entirely of songs by Radiohead. Not that there's anything inherently wrong with that, but if this is truly an all-genres list, why wasn't Tim McGraw's "Live Like You Were Dying" on there? WTF?

There is no justice in the world. We'll have to take all the flying pork we can get.
