Ashby Frank Evokes the Season's Most Cherished Moments with "Christmas In Virginia"
North Carolina-raised, Nashville-based singer/songwriter/mandolinist Ashby Frank releases his brand new holiday single "Christmas In Virginia," a gently glowing ballad that evokes the season's most cherished moments.
With help from multi-instrumentalist co-producer Brandon Bostic, fiddler Megan Lynch Chowning and singer Tina Adair, Frank revisits the song, first recorded in the 1990s by Clinton Gregory, through an almost meditative acoustic treatment that focuses all of its attention on a timeless melody and simple, yet well-crafted lyric.
For Frank, the song has a personal connection that underpins his emotive performance. "'Christmas In Virginia' brings me back to my late grandparent's log cabin near Galax, Virginia where my family has spent many long weekends and holidays over the years. My mom now owns the cabin and carries on those traditions. We tried to make this track sound warm and like home, and I'm so happy to share it with everyone this Christmas season."
Frank has become known as one of Music City's most valuable collaborators, and now he's begun releasing music of his own with Mountain Home Music Company. His first single with the label, "Midnight Highway," quickly topped Bluegrass radio charts as a broad range of listeners became acquainted with talents that industry observers have known of for years.
