TUNE IN: LITTLE FEATHER
STARS IN DITTYTV CONCERT SERIES
Premiering
October 1 at 8 p.m. CDT
NASHVILLE,
Tenn. (Sept. 29, 2017)
Curb
Records' award winning band, Little
Feather, released their SELF-TITLED
debut album digitally Friday, September
29. The Huffington Post says, "If you took a salt shaker and threw in some
Loretta Lynn, Patty Loveless and Little Big Town and shook it up, what just
might come out is the sound of Curb Records’ newest act, Little Feather."
Music Row Magazine calls the debut
"old school country soul."
On
Sept 29 they were hanging out live with the one and only Bill Cody on 650AM WSM Radio
at 9AM to talk about the album and play you a few tunes.
The
easy-going, fun-loving band has been blowing up social media with their
innovative "Drive-Thru
Concert" series on Facebook and YouTube. They literally pile into a
van, order a meal, and then pick and sing their way to the drive-thru window
causing impromptu reactions by employees who can’t help but start dancing and
singing along with them. The videos, which have amassed over two million views, have gone over so well
that earlier this month Little Feather enjoyed their first taste of success by
winning a Silver Telly Award in the Music Video category at the 38th Annual
Telly Awards that honors the best in film and video. In the same category, the
band also won a Communicator Award. The Communicator Awards is the leading
international awards program recognizing big ideas in marketing and
communications.
Take a listen to their music and you’ll hear why this new generation of rustic, heart-on-the-sleeve, Country-meets-Americana sound caught the ear of legendary executive producer and Curb record label CEO, Jim Ed Norman.

About LITTLE FEATHER:
Country
singer-songwriter Liz Sharpe, a.k.a.
Little Feather, literally has music in her blood. From the tiny Appalachian
town of Pikeville, Kentucky, she was born into the fabled singing dynasty that
includes Loretta Lynn and Patty Loveless (her second cousins) and
she has been making music practically since she emerged from the womb.
At
age three she announced to her unsuspecting parents “Mama, I am music”, and her
daddy promptly went out and sold his guitar and accordion to buy his daughter
her first piano.
After years of singing and playing organ in the church choir she ran off to college in Australia (she wanted to learn to surf) and studied classical piano and composition for film. But like most country musicians she eventually retraced her roots and found her way to Nashville, Tennessee. She joined forces with her two best musical compadres and has found her musical home with her own band, Little Feather.

She joined forces with her two best musical compadres and has found her musical home with her own band, Little Feather.
Evoking
the ghosts of her Appalachian/Cherokee past, the modern-vintage yodel and stomp
of Little Feather is the sound of Allison
Krauss sitting in with Mumford and
Sons in Fleetwood Mac’s
basement. Country as cornbread but fresh as tomorrow’s twitter feed, Little
Feather is creating quite a buzz in the Nashville music community and beyond.
Liz Sharpe, the little girl from Pikeville, Kentucky, has come into her own as
a singer, writer and performer and with Little Feather she has found her wings.
The organically-acoustic driven band is rich in heritage, connecting the young Pikeville, Kentucky lead songstress, Liz Sharpe, to award-winning traditionalist Patty Loveless and to the Queen of Country herself, Loretta Lynn. And, as if that wasn’t impressive enough, Shannon Campbell (guitar, mandolin, banjo and harmony) happens to be the son of musical icon, Glen Campbell. The rest of the band is comprised of Sharpe’s husband, Aaron Spraggs (drums), Dylan Rowe (bass player), Sam Brooker (rhythm guitar and harmony) and Pat Boyer (guitar and slide). - PHOTOS
