Artist of the week: Grace Askew


As pretty as autumn in the Smoky Mountains, Grace Askew, who was not only on The Voice and won 1st place in the Folk category of the John Lennon Songwriting Contest, and probably has many other accolades I'm not aware of, hails from Memphis, TN.
Her infectious and dynamic voice takes her brand of country and blues and gives it an honesty that not many singer/songwriters are able to project. Her clever wordplay lyrics tell of ugly breakups and gritty struggle. Enjoy the 2 videos below.
