Ashley Monroe doesn’t waste time. Less than two weeks after surprise-releasing ‘Dear Nashville’, her eight-song concept album co-written and co-produced with Luke Laird, she’s shared the official video for “Gettin’ Out Of Hand.” The album arrived on March 27th alongside an open letter posing the question at its core: “If someone is hurting us, and we don’t let them know, isn’t that on us?” It’s Monroe’s most urgent and quickly recorded work to date, a record that doubles as both a sharp reckoning with Nashville’s music industry and a deeply personal meditation on unrequited love. “The bottom line of the album,” Monroe says, “is I wish you loved me like I love you.” The video for album centerpiece “I Hate Nashville” is already out, and “Gettin’ Out Of Hand” keeps the momentum rolling.
Monroe hits the road April 17th supporting Stephen Wilson Jr. on his sold-out Gary The Torch Tour, with stops in Kansas City, Denver, Omaha, Madison, and Chicago.
