Ashley MonroeBiographyCountry singer Ashley Monroe was already a seasoned show business veteran when she released her self-titled album in 2007 at the tender age of 19. Born in Knoxville, Tennessee, Monroe was raised in a family with a great love for country music — she's kin to Carl Smith and members of the Carter Family on her father's side — and she developed a passion for music at an early age, taking her first piano lessons when she was only seven. At age 11, Monroe won a talent contest in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee (home to Dolly Parton's Dollywood resort), singing Patsy Montana's Western classic "I Want to Be a Cowboy's Sweetheart"; she brought home a $100 prize, and was soon a regular performer at a theater in Pigeon Forge. However, Monroe's world was turned upside down when her father died in early 2000, and 13-year-old Ashley began writing songs to help her deal with the tragedy.
