Ashley Ray Needs Your Couch!
How'd you like a country star as a houseguest? New artist Ashley Ray is hitting the road this spring as part of Eric Church's 'Young and Wild' tour, but she needs a place to crash. Ray will be traveling with her guitar player, driving from gig to gig in a rented Tahoe, and she's asking folks in the towns she's visiting to consider putting her up for the night.
"I'm going to be calling on my friends, family and fans to help make this tour a reality," the singer writes on her website. "When Eric personally invited me to do this tour, I humbly said 'yes, of course' without thinking about the little details like how am I going to be able to financially pull it off -- times are tough for us all and the road ain't cheap! If any of you have an extra couch, I promise I'm a fun girl and I do not snore!"
Fans will be able to keep up with Ray's couch-hopping adventures on her MySpace page throughout the tour, which begins March 12 in Evansville, Indiana, and is scheduled to run through May.
