April Cushman (USA)

A New Hampshire native, April has quickly emerged as one of the most exciting new names on the American country scene. In 2023, she was named a Top 10 emerging artist by both Tractor Supply and country superstar Lainey Wilson. Her style is often described as a blend of Ashley McBryde’s raw vocal power and Lori McKenna’s gift for storytelling that hits you right in the heart.

Her momentum is undeniable; she recently sold out her first major hometown show, followed shortly by a high-profile halftime performance for the newly crowned AFC Champions, the New England Patriots. She has already shared the stage with heavyweights like Kip Moore, Scotty McCreery, and Darius Rucker.

When she isn’t in Nashville co-writing with hitmakers like Marty Dodson and Rob Snyder, April lives on her family farm in New Hampshire with her husband and daughter. She is currently putting the finishing touches on her sophomore album, The Price I Pay, slated for release in 2026.
