Bomshel Fight Like A Girl

(PR) October 20th Curb Records lit the fuse to ignite Bomshel's debut album release Fight Like A Girl, a well-crafted collection of female-empowering themes and edgy undertones; not left without a tender touch.
Bomshel, comprised of Kristy O and Kelley Shepard, spent a lifetime and the last year and a half preparing for the release of Fight Like A Girl. This record is a product of countless hours around a kitchen table, fueled by gallons of coffee and taken from an immeasurable variety of lessons in life learned.
With a studio upstairs in their Nashville-based home, the two had a hand in virtually every aspect of this album start to finish; mixing, recording, co-writing on ten out of the eleven tracks. The exception being a rockin' countrified version of No Doubt's 'Just A Girl,' featuring a tantalizing yet familiar fiddle intro by Kristy O!
"Every song you hear it's going to be us," says Kelley. "You'll hear our fun side and our sad side. We have some really traditional country on there and some really poppy stuff." Including Bomshel's current single "19 & Crazy," co-written by Grammy Award-winning songwriter Josh Kear, offering an enchanting recollection of the final yet unforgettable phases of adolescence.
In writing songs for their record, Kelley and Kristy were looking to share stories�things they'd lived or seen someone else live through. "It has to be something that we're really organically going through or a conversation that we've had with a fan or friend," says Kristy.
