The Sit Down with Ashley Cooke
We last spent some time with Ashley Cooke prior to her first trip over to the UK, a year ago to play C2C: Country to Country in London and Glasgow. Since then, Cooke released her debut album last July through Big Loud Records called “shot in the dark” (available HERE) which contains a massive TWENTY FOUR TRACKS.
After the success of last year’s trip, Ashley makes a welcome return to open for Jordan Davis this February on his 15 date European tour for shows in the UK, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Germany, The Netherlands and Switzerland which we got to look forward to with Ashley as we spoke over Zoom whilst she was in Copenhagen just before the tour started.

How’s it going?
“It’s going so good, we just got to Denmark yesterday, so I’ve been adventuring around Copenhagen all day and I love it over here. It’s so fun, it’s amazing.”
It feels really weird to speak to someone that is ahead of us in time for a change, because normally you guys are behind us and doing stuff in your mornings but now it’s the other way around but I saw you went out on a boat earlier.
“Yeah, we did earlier today and it was so cool. We’ve honestly just been walking around and seeing all the places, getting pastries, trying new foods and hanging out. It’s so cool, everybody is so chill here and everything feels so safe which I so unique. I noticed too that all the bikes are not locked and that babies are in strollers outside of restaurants, I’m like what the heck? We did a boat tour and it was honestly crazy going underneath the bridge because I was like woah, this is right above my head and oh my gosh this is crazy.”
To us, Copenhagen is quite an expensive city even from living in London but the Scandinavians are all lovely and you’ll see that over the next couple of days. The tour schedule is quite tight because you are pretty much in and out of everywhere so, I’m really glad that you had a bit of time to see somewhere that’s not just an airport and backstage at a venue.
“One hundred percent me too. That’s why we flew in a day or so early or I guess two days early because first off we could fight the jetlag but secondly to actually see some of the cities. My soundchecks don’t start until two or two thirty so thankfully I’ll be able to spend the mornings looking round whatever city we’re in, I mean we’re flying in a lot of the mornings though so, we’ll see what happens.”
I know you head to Amsterdam and that’s the only place in Europe I’ve been to see a gig. Melkweg, the venue you’re playing there is a really cool spot and if you have time to explore there, Amsterdam is another place to go on a boat because it’s all on canals and it’s really pretty with lots of low bridges there too.
“I love that so much, I’m so excited. I want to get a tattoo somewhere, I don’t know where but I want to get like a fine line tattoo somewhere on this tour so if you’ve got any good recommendations let me know.”
I would think that would be the city if you were looking to get a tattoo in Europe maybe?
“That could be cool. Yeah, Amsterdam would be really cool, I found one in Zurich too, like a fine line person in Zurich.”
Oh, yeah. You’re going to Switzerland as well, I totally glossed over and forgot that.
“I know, we’re hitting so many different places that I’m like oh my goodness and also this is my second time over here. In the States, there’s the United States of Americana and then each state, got it but here it is so many cities and countries. I’m like is this the country, am I in a different area, where am I at? It’s fun to get to learn but me and Jordan were actually talking about being on stage and how I’m so inclined to be like what’s up UK, then he’s like that’s the equal of what’s up America because you’re playing a show in Ohio. That sounds very ignorant so I need to understand where I’m at and how to pronounce all the cities to be respectful of the places that I’m in.”
You start in London, when you come back to see us though which is a week on Tuesday which will be cool but you’re coming back again and “it’s been a year” which would be a great title for a song by the way.
“Ha ha thank you so much.”
So obviously it went pretty well when you came to see us in March last year then?
“Absolutely, I’ve been talking about it a million times over. I’m just so pumped to get back to these crowds because the one thing about C2C and I think I told you last time I was talking to you, was that the crowds were so much more respectful. It’s so kind and if they come to your show, even if you’re the opener like I am, they’ve learned your songs, they care and they want to listen which is such a unique experience coming from the States where people are not like that at all. It will be a fun change so I’m excited to get back in those rooms and meet more people. I was going to buy a jacket today in one of the stores in Copenhagen and the guy checking out at the desk was like I want to come, have you got any tickets? I’m like OK and I just made a friend so, it’s fun to get to meet people that have already heard my music but now didn’t know that I was in town so are coming now.”

Everyone brings up the crowds when you talk about how they find coming to the UK and coming to Europe because people really notice it so everyone talks but I really liked your Reel on Instagram after the trip with other things you observed in Britain. We had plugs in the bathroom on there.
“Yes!!!!!!”
You’ll find that everywhere in Europe because common sense tells you that water and electricity are not a good mix so to us we find it weird the other way with how you do have plugs in the bathroom.
“OK yeah, hundred percent. I’m curious though how do people curl their hair and stuff? Do they do it outside like in the kitchen?”
People do it in their bedroom.
“So, it’s in a room. Do people have like a desk or something in their bedroom?”
Yeah, just do stuff in another room where there’s space and power but also we don’t tend to have large mirrors in house bathrooms here as a general rule. The other bathroom observation that you picked up on is how people here will ask for “the toilet” rather than the bathroom.
“YES. Actually, funnily enough I was at London Heathrow and I didn’t know where the bathroom was so I was asking one of the people with the HELP ME shirts on where’s the restroom? She goes yes, you can ask me a question and I’m like no, where’s the restroom? Then she said oh, the toilet and I’m like sorry where is the toilet ha ha. I don’t know how to explain it, it sounds so like, not vulgar to me, it just doesn’t sound proper and not what we would say.”
I think that’s the same all across Europe really as to us when you’re asking for the bathroom, people would probably think you want a shower or a bath but that’s just us really.
“Yeah, it’s so fascinating as all the signs say toilet on them. It is fascinating because I love the different cultures and it’s so fun to get to learn.”
Lastly on ice in drinks, you know now you have to ask for it because we don’t really want a lot because we have the logic of more ice means less liquid in your drink but moving on and since I last spoke to you, we’ve got a record out. A BIG RECORD and you had said it was going to be a big record but at the time, didn’t know how big and you were just going to see how many songs it took you to which is very you and the way that you are with the yeah, let’s see what happens.
“Ha ha exactly.”
The first question I want to ask about “shot in the dark” is the album title and all of the song titles are in lower case so just curious as to why you chose to do it that way?
“It’s so funny because I keep getting questions about the lower case and I don’t really have a very specific answer for it. For me it is more so how I type when I text or email somebody and it’s typically in lower case so it feels more informal and personal which is how I want my listeners to feel when they listen to my music. That they listen to me as a human being so, I kind of just chose that because to me it visually looked cooler, it’s just how I type and it just felt right.”
That’s very similar to what Alana Springsteen said when I asked about her album but she did the title in CAPITALS, the EP Title Starting Words Upper Case and the songs all being in lower case. It’s always something that people ask us, like is there a secret reason why people are doing it? But no, it’s just that it looks nice really.
“I think it just looks like it’s very clean and you know crisp.”
With putting so many songs on the record, it’s the first chance you have had to put a lot of songs out and you’re really excited about but going forward does the idea of putting out another large record appeal to you again. Or are you realising that when you’re putting twenty four songs on an album, you can’t do twenty four radio singles so some of those songs don’t get the moment that they might have got if you had held them for the next project?
“That’s a great question. Honestly, it’s a tough industry and talking about singles, you’re right that when you put out a long project, not all of the songs are going to get as much love because of the nature of the beast and the nature of how it all rolls. For me personally, I just love the art of a project, growing up my favourite songs from artists like Rascal Flatts and Luke Bryan were all of their deep cuts which people may not have heard as much but I know that as a young kid when I was listening to that music and the radio singles are great, don’t get me wrong but I just loved the deep cuts. I also loved the fact that they were deep cuts and how my friends knew who Luke Bryan was or who Rascal Flatts were in they knew “Bless the Broken Road” but didn’t know “Come Wake Me Up” or for Luke Bryan they hadn’t heard “Too Damn Young” but knew “Country Girl (Shake It For Me)”. Yes of course from a business minded person, I want the biggest bang for my buck where I can go to radio and do all of this stuff, but I think as an artist and someone that wants to inspire young artists, I don’t really care. I want the deep cuts to be deep cuts if that is what they need to be, whether that’s best for the business or not, I just want people to be inspired by a song that may not got as much radio play or whatever. To me, whether it is a 24 song second album or an 8 song second album, whatever the songs that I choose to be on there and I hope there is a radio single in there but if there is not, I hope that the integrity of the art is still just as strong as I feel the first album was.”
You have got a couple of friends who join you on the album. Two of them, we are going to see in a months’ time because I’m heading to Berlin for C2C as well as London the week after. Jackson (Dean) is not doing C2C in London but he’s over for Berlin and Rotterdam, then a lot of people are very excited because they have never seen Colbie (Caillat) over here before, I think it’s about seventeen years since I saw her play in London. Not forgetting Mr Nate Smith who’s one of the greatest vocalists, songwriters, performers and just down right one of the coolest guys going.
When we spoke last time, we talked about how Brett (Young) came in on “never til now” which was through Jimmy Robbins making some calls and Brett said yes but how did those three end up getting involved here and being on this record?
“Honestly the majority of it was just through friendship and I think that was my thing too with this album. When I was looking at different songs and asking different artists about it, I was like who would I just want to hang out with so, Jackson and Nate were people that I had been friends with from radio tours and stuff like that. I’ll kind of go one by one so, Jackson Dean and I were asked to do a Morgan Wallen song together for this publishing awards in Nashville, we already were friends because of radio tour, already knew each other and loved each other’s work but when we got together to run through that song and perform it together, everyone in the crowd was saying you guys have to do a song together. So, something was already in the works and “what are you on fire about” was actually written by Lainey Wilson which makes it a fun Nashville centred story. Jackson is one of my favourite humans, he’s just the greatest and I love him so much.”
“Yes!!!!!!”
You’ll find that everywhere in Europe because common sense tells you that water and electricity are not a good mix so to us we find it weird the other way with how you do have plugs in the bathroom.

Jackson is one of my favourite humans, he’s just the greatest and I love him so much.”
“Nate Smith is truly one of my greatest friends in this industry, we are constantly encouraging each other and I think it’s because we genuinely believe in each other which is a really special thing to have in this industry. I’m so proud of him for what is it now, seven or eight weeks at number one with “World on Fire” so he’s absolutely killing it but he’s just one of the best people. When I first did a radio show with him, I was promoting “never til now” and we just really hit it off as friends. When I was thinking about this project, I was thinking about Nate and I think I sent him 3 different songs saying If anyone of them you would want to feature on I think you would be great but he specifically picked “see you around” as he loved that song so much. That was a fun one because I got to give him a couple of songs and he picked that because he loved it and he believed in it so much.”
“Colbie Caillat has always been such an inspiration to me. You’ve watched her career blossom through the years too and I was such a big fan of hers and I still am. When I was younger, I was always told that I have a similar tone to her and had similar vibes because we’re both blonde, beachy kind of people. We met in the writing room on that day as we were writing “mean girl” and she is literally the kindest and most amazing human on the planet that I was really honoured that she wanted to do a song with me but now we’re great friends. It’s very cool, that was like a very full circle like dream kind of moment for me, I also love how she was in more pop music for her whole life and now she is coming into country where I get to be a part of her branch into country which was an honour. I am very happy about the features, every single one on the album feels like it was methodically placed and it going to be tough to follow up on with album 2 because they all just crushed it so much."
Coming back to finish up talking about this tour, is it going to be just you on stage or have you got a friend with you or even friends behind you on stage?
“It’s kind of divided up so, for the European portion it’s just myself and one of Jordan Davis’s players named Jonathon is going to hop in and play with me, similar to the setup that I had for C2C. Then for the UK portion I’m going to be full band so that will be fun.”
That’s amazing!
“Yeah, so it’s going to be me, my guitar player and my drummer, then we’re running some tracks behind it too so, it’s going to feel like an actual really big show and I’m excited!”
That’s really cool. People here will love to hear that you’re doing that and we’ve seen recently like when Corey Kent came over and opened for Ashley McBryde, he brought his drummer with him where a lot of people have said that it’s great to see with openers. We do love listening to the stories but when people have been here before it’s good to see them have a bit more to their set and see something a bit different. People have been saying that quite a lot so, that’s really cool that you’re able to be doing that.
“I know, I’m so excited and it will be different. Your right, I think that because the audience is so attentive it’s easy to want to default to the acoustic storytelling kind of stuff but I’m so pumped to get to show them a different side to what I do and do what I typically do in the States bringing our full show over so it will be a lot of fun.”
Thank you so much, it’s always so much fun, I love talking to you Ashley because I have no idea what to expect with where things are going to go, which are the best interviews to do. You’re energy is amazing and I’m really glad that you are back. I wasn’t expecting you to say that you were going to have a band but I am so thrilled to hear that so, that’s awesome. Enjoy the trip, hope you get to see some cool places and find somewhere to get a tattoo, then we will see a week on Tuesday in London.
“Sounds like a plan, thanks so much again and it’s great to hear from you as always.”
