Stop The Bullet by Ashliegh Lisset – Song of the Day

Our Song of the Day is Stop The Bullet by Independent singer-songwriter and Texas-native, Ashliegh Lisset.

"I’m so excited to finally share what I’ve been working on," Ashliegh, who has spent the last year co-writing and traveling to Nashville, explains. "It's been a long time coming! This music is everything I dreamed it would be, and the moment I heard Stop The Bullet I knew it was the first single - the lyrics, the music ... everything about it. I hope you all love it as much as I do! A BIG thank you to Liz Rose Music for allowing me to cut it, Eric Legg for mixing and producing, as well as the writers: Phil Barton, Emily Shackleton, Adam Argyle, Victoria Banks."

As a young girl, Ashliegh would roam around the house with her iPod, singing along to her favourite artists. By the age of fifteen, she knew she wanted to pursue a career in the entertainment industry and began making trips to write and record in Nashville, Tennessee, determined to follow her dream.

In 2014, Ashliegh released her first single called Kill the Headlights, co-written by Luke Laird,Hillary Lindsey, and also by Ashliegh’s idol – Carrie Underwood. The song spent eight weeks on The Highway’s Top 30 chart and was featured on Billboard’s Top 100 chart. In 2016, Ashliegh released her next single, Goodbye, co-written by Kelsea Ballerini.

Ashliegh went on to release Daughter of an American Hero in 2019, honouring her late father. When Ashliegh was just eleven years old, her father, who was serving his second tour for Operation Iraqi Freedom, was killed in the line of duty. The song received positive reviews from several news outlets and Ford featured Ashliegh in its Military Truck Month commercial. Ashliegh is currently an ambassador for the Folds of Honor organisation and shares her story to help encourage others.

Ashliegh has opened for the likes of Sam Hunt, Tyler Farr, Brett Young, Joe Diffie and Jerrod Niemann, just to name a few, and has performed at Nashville’s famous CMA Festival.
