Amazon Music announced Dasha as its latest Breakthrough Artist at Variety’s Power of Women: Nashville event last week. As part of the campaign, Dasha recently released an Amazon Music Original cover of Gretchen Wilson’s “Here for the Party” in advance of her Mane Stage debut at Stagecoach.
“We’ve long been fans of Dasha at Amazon Music,” says Michelle Tigard Kammerer, Head of Country Music at Amazon Music. “She’s a true presence in country, unafraid to be herself, ruffle some feathers and make some of the most undeniable music at the intersection of pop and country in recent memory. We look forward to helping make her creative vision a reality. We’ll see you all in Dashville, U.S.A..”
Breakthrough is Amazon Music’s program to support emerging artists, aimed at amplifying the best new talent and championing them at the most crucial moment in their careers. Amazon Music works with each Breakthrough artist and their teams to develop long-term, customized, global plans that are unique to each artist.
“I feel incredibly honored to be selected for Amazon Music’s Breakthrough program. I’ve got big plans for my fans, and it’s great to have the team at Amazon Music helping to make those plans a reality,” says Dasha. “Amazon Music has really embraced me and my creativity and we’re working on putting together things I’ve been wanting to do since day one. Stay tuned.”
