“Run Baby Run, written by Bruce Wallace and Rachel Proctor, couldn’t have come at a better time! We were able to hear it in the process of selecting songs and it fit really well with the overall feel we wanted for this album. The song has the ability to instantly grab listeners and pull them in with a sound that felt a lot like “Fancy” by Reba (my favorite female country artist growing up). It’s an intense storyline with a very real circumstance, and shows the lengths a mother will go to for her child…”
– Kasha
“Run Baby Run! I love the gritt and raw energy of this song. Coming from a writer who really wants the most amount of originals on an album possible, I still knew from the first time that I listened to this track that it belonged on this album! Interested in hearing what people have to say about it!”
– Mitch

The Orchard Releases Debut Album “Southern Ground”.
The Orchard made up of Kasha Anne and Mitch Smith are set to release their debut album
“Southern Ground” today, August 28th, 2012. The duo will host a CD release event tonight at 5:00pm at Permanent Records.
The band also releases their 3rd single today. “Gotta Let You Go” is officially at radio.
“I’ve gone through those relationships, where I know things have to come to an end. The thought stays with me throughout the day, another night behind closed doors doesn’t seem like such a terrible idea..I think it is common for people to go through things like that. Whether they are afraid of missing that person, or just aren’t sure what the right thing to do is. That’s what this song means to me…Honest and simple, with a touch of bluegrass” – Mitch
“We all have a person in our lives at some point who we love, but isn’t good for us. Gotta Let You Go is light and encouraging for anyone who needs the strength to make a change. Hopefully this beat can help kick the blues.” – Kasha

The Canadian Country Music Association® is proud to announce an outstanding group of performers who will take to the 2012 PotashCorp Country Music Week stage on Thursday, September 6 as part of the CCMA New Artist Showcase.

“The Canadian Country Music Association is thrilled to have the opportunity to showcase these new artists to country music fans across Canada,” said Don Green, Executive Director, CCMA. “Although this has traditionally been considered an industry event, this year the CCMA is encouraging the public to take in this incredible opportunity to meet the future stars of Canadian country music.”
Artists taking part in the 2012 CCMA New Artist Showcase were chosen based on a submission process and juried national by music industry professionals in a three-phase process. Throughout the evening’s show, jurors will adjudicate performances and award the winner with the CCMA New Artist Showcase Award. The recipient of this award will be recognized at the 2012 CCMA Gala Awards Presentation and will receive a special package from DMDS, RDR Music and Lauren Tutty Promotions. Additionally, the 2012 CCMA New Artist Showcase will feature a special performance from the 2011 New Artist Showcase Award winner, Jess Moskaluke.
