On September 6, 2024, rising country superstar Anslee Davidson unveiled her latest single, "Praying In A Bar," following a successful debut on WSM Radio. Davidson, hailing from Greensboro, Georgia, has made significant strides in her music career, despite facing challenges early on.
Davidson's journey in music dates back to her teenage years when she began writing songs with her father. At just 16 years old, she captured a Golden Ticket on American Idol. However, a COVID-19 diagnosis temporarily halted her progress. After recovering, Davidson emerged with a renewed focus and determination. Her commitment to her craft alongside her studies at Belmont University, where she is enrolled in a songwriting program, has allowed her to find her footing in the country and Americana music scenes.
In 2021, she signed with Oconee Music Foundry, collaborating with notable Nashville artists and sharing stages with acts such as Kristian Bush of Sugarland and Deana Carter. Davidson has captivated audiences at venues like the Bluebird Café and Whiskey Jam. Her previous EP, "Made Me," released in 2023, has garnered nearly 2 million streams and includes the title track making waves on Spotify's curated playlists.
"Praying In A Bar" was co-written with Ben Williams, a recognized name in the industry known for his award-winning song, "Tennessee Orange," performed by Megan Moroney. The song explores the emotional landscape of love and hope, told through the lens of a woman grappling with her feelings in a bar setting. Davidson shared that the song's title was inspired by a conversation with her brother during a challenging family moment.
With significant social media followings and a voice described as "timeless" by Katy Perry, Anslee Davidson continues to rise in the music industry. Fans can listen to "Praying In A Bar" and keep up with her journey on her official website.
