Hi Editor,

I hope you’re doing well!

My name is Alexandra, and I’m a PR rep based in Nashville. I wanted to reach out to introduce you to rising Tennessee country singer-songwriter Sutton Avery, whose honest songwriting and traditional country influences offer a fresh perspective on the experiences that shape us.

Sutton has begun making her mark as an independent artist, earning recognition on seven country artist-to-watch lists and surpassing 150,000 independent streams. She was also selected to perform at the 2026 Songwriters Festival, further establishing her presence in Nashville's songwriting community. Her latest single, “The Girl I Was,” explores the complicated process of growing up, letting go of past expectations, and learning to embrace the person you're becoming. Inspired by her own experiences navigating her twenties, the song pairs reflective, deeply personal lyrics with warm country instrumentation, capturing a feeling many listeners can relate to.

Originally from Tennessee, Sutton spent years performing at local venues before moving to Nashville to pursue a career as an independent artist. Her songwriting centers on personal experiences, relationships, and the defining moments that shape who we become. Blending traditional country storytelling with a contemporary perspective, she continues to develop a sound and identity of her own.

Since establishing herself in Nashville, Sutton has continued to build momentum independently, connecting with listeners through songs that explore the experiences, relationships, and growing pains of finding your place in the world.

I'd love to see if you would consider Sutton for an interview to discuss her latest single, “The Girl I Was,” the personal experiences behind the song, and her journey from performing at local Tennessee venues to building an independent career in Nashville.

I've included a private link to her latest single for your consideration. Thank you for your time, and I look forward to connecting!

Best,
Alexandra
