.AshleyMcBryde details how her new Lindeville album about small town living came to be, and why it’s an important nod to the past.

will help to maintain that status. Showcasing her penchant for tightly-curated character studies, the project takes various characters from the same fictional town and explores what happens when their stories intertwine.

The town’s name of Lindeville nods to songwriter Dennis Linde, who wrote Elvis’ “Burnin’ Love,” and “Callin’ Baton Rouge,” which had originally been recorded by the Oak Ridge Boys and New Grass Revival before becoming a smash hit for Garth Brooks in 1994. In his other work, Linde had a habit of featuring a character named Earl, who shows up in the Sammy Kershaw hit “Queen of My Double Wide Trailer” and meets his demise in the Chicks’ “Goodbye Earl.

Once assembled they all gathered at a lake house about an hour outside of Nashville for a week-long writing retreat, leaving with songs that reverberate with unvarnished truths. “We had no thought of, ‘Should this a ballad?’ or ‘We need to write a song about this [topic].’ Our goal was just to be happy … Somebody might be high, somebody might be a bit drunk or just had a mimosa. If it’s lunch, someone’s making sandwiches while we’re writing or you’re eating on top of your sketch pad.

“Play Ball,” with lead vocals from Brothers Osborne’s TJ Osborne, offers the tale of Pete, a kind-hearted man who “chalks the ballfields at Dennis Linde park…he lost his wife to cancer and a thumb in Vietnam.” Even the dogs of Lindeville get their own moment, as the wry wit of “If These Dogs Could Talk” highlights vocals from Clark.

“Gospel Night at the Strip Club” serves as one of the project’s most gripping, soul-searching pulses, depicting a bartender who offers late-night sojourners a place at the bar to pour out their pain, a place as good as any church pew.
