'The Devil I Know,' a new album from Ashley McBryde, set for September

Grammy winner Ashley McBryde will release The Devil I Know on Sept. 8 through Warner Music Nashville.

“When it was time to put together The Devil I Know, my band and I did what we always do: got together in the purple building in East Nashville, played through a bunch of songs and discussed where we wanted it to go,” shares McBryde. “We decided to take all the things that people tend to give us a hard time for and turn it up.

“‘Y’all are too country.’ We leaned into that – more country it is. ‘Y’all are awfully rock leaning for a country artist.’ Is that so? You ain’t seen nothin’ yet. ‘Last thing y’all need is another tender, finger pickin’ song.’ Oh? Tender makes you uneasy, cowboy? I hear you. Let’s see how much more tender we can be. We listened to all those opinions and said, ‘I hear you. I understand what you’re saying.’ But sadly, there’s no room on the record for your opinion. We’ll do what we want.”

Continuing about first released track, "Learned to Lie," she says, it "was a hard one; I wrote it with Sean McConnell and Nicolette Hayford,” McBryde reflects. “After it was written, I called my mom to let her know that I had told a little bit more of our story as a family. I said, ‘It’s going to be hard to hear, but none of it is untrue.’”

McBryde’s truth-telling is delivered a little softer in current chart-climbing single “Light On In The Kitchen.” She will be on the road throughout the summer for headlining and festival shows along with tour dates with Eric Church and Jelly Roll.
