It rained the few days before the shoot, so it was insanely muddy out by the barn where the fire was. I drive a lifted Jeep Wrangler with trail grapplers, so I was able to cut through the trails easily\u2026 but most of my friends that came out were in sudans, sports cars, and small SUVs so most of them got stuck! We were cracking up having to get everyone out of the mud but it honestly made it that much more fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cmt.com\/news\/r7zshm\/premiere-sunsets-dirt-roads-bring-revival-in-ashley-cookes-sunday-morning-kinda-saturday-night-video\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read full article<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ashley Cooke yearns for an emotional re-centering after a bad breakup on her new track, \u201cSunday Morning Kinda Saturday Night,\u201d which reached the pinnacle of the iTunes Country chart after it was released earlier this month.
