Review

Dasha's debut country album, "What Happens Now?" released on February 16, 2024, is a stirring blend that dives deep into themes of heartbreak, desire, and the tangled intricacies of relationships. The album not only highlights her exceptional songwriting talent but also emphasizes her rich mix of country, folk, and Americana sounds. From the first note, it's clear that Dasha’s vocal prowess and lyrical vulnerability are set to make waves in the music industry.

The track "Austin" became a sensation after exploding on TikTok, securing over 500,000 streams in a mere day. Its catchy tune and poignant lyrics struck a chord with listeners, quickly turning it into a viral hit. The album’s title track, "What Happens Now?" is just as evocative, tackling the uncertainties of aging with grand musical arrangements and impressive vocal delivery. Not to be overlooked, songs like "42," with its haunting melodies, and "Even Cowboys Cry," which offers a raw and emotive listening experience, contribute to the album's profound impact. This debut establishes Dasha as a compelling new voice in country music, promising a bright future ahead. - Courtney

Artist Bio

Dasha, from San Luis Obispo, California, began releasing music in 2020 and put out her debut EP $hiny Things in 2021, blending country twang with polished pop hooks. Her first album Dirty Blonde landed in 2023, but the TikTok-driven single “Austin” cracked the Billboard Hot 100’s top 20 in 2024 and led to a deal with Warner Records. The 2024 follow-up album What Happens Now?, a CMT Music Awards performance, and a crowd-pleasing Stagecoach set have kept her momentum growing. Fans of Kacey Musgraves, Ingrid Andress, or Maren Morris will recognize a similar mix of catchy melodies and conversational, story-first songwriting.
