In addition to being the only artist in the genre selected for Entertainment Weekly’s “2019 Artists to Watch” list, Wammack made numerous best-of lists including Amazon, Pandora, Music Row, Pop Culture, and Sounds Like Nashville among others.
A gifted musician with a confident soprano that conveys sincerity and charisma, Wammack was dubbed one of Rolling Stone’s “10 Best County EPs of 2018,” showing off “enormous potential for the young Muscle Shoals native” as well as NPR’s “Best Music of 2018” list.
