Official website of Julie Ingram - singer, songwriter, author

Dallas singer/songwriter Julie Ingram’s new single, “I Love You” (CDX Volume 500), is currently impacting national country radio. Look for an “I Love You” video, which was shot last week in scenic Texoma, to follow shortly. The single is the first from Julie’s soon to be released new album titled ALWAYS REMEMBER.

“The idea for this song came to me after losing friends before really getting a chance to talk,” says songwriter, Frank Wainwright. “It inspired me to make sure I tell all of the people I care about that I love them every time we’re together. I was thrilled to have Julie cut “I Love You” because she really feels this song and that’s what’s important to me.”

In addition to releasing a new single, Julie is also gearing up for the CMA Music Festival which has become something of an athletic event for her. An accomplished hunter known as the “Long-Shot Girl,” Julie will compete in Field & Stream’s Total Outdoorsman Challenge and Outdoor Life’s Save-A-Stream Charity Pro-AM for the third year in a row. She is looking forward to reuniting with pro-caller, Bubba McPherson at Outdoor Life’s Save-A-Stream Charity Pro-AM which teams up country artists with some of the top callers/outdoorsmen in the United States for a friendly game-calling competition. Julie and Bubba have taken 2nd place in the event for the last two years.

Julie Celebrates Her Country Roots With Latest Single, 'Gone To Kentucky'

DALLAS – Marking the fourth title to be released from her acclaimed album Keep On Believin’, singer/songwriter Julie Ingram, aka LongShot Girl, has taken to the airwaves with her latest single “Gone To Kentucky.” Following in the footsteps of other popular Ingram songs such as “Make Me Feel Like A Woman,” “Anytime Anywhere,” and “A Place Called Love,” “Gone To Kentucky” is an upbeat, country-yet-bluegrass-inspired story of a woman leaving her inattentive man for a place “where the only thing blue is the grass.”

“It’s absolutely one of my favorite songs to sing,” said Ingram. “The momentum is just like a train and once I get going with the band, there’s no stopping us. Even the audience has been known to join in with the catchy chorus.”

Ingram’s album Keep On Believin’ is a collection of 13 songs that speak to the trials and tribulations of a woman trying to make a career in country music.

Always traveling, performing and promoting Keep On Believin’, Julie recently attended Super Bowl XLIII in Tampa, Florida. In addition to going to the game, she hosted the auction event, along with dear friend Scott Murray of Murray Media, at Saturday Night Spectacular (The Ultra Premier Big Game Event), which was headlined by Kevin Costner and his band Modern West. The event benefited the Matthew Tryson Bryant Foundation, which was created by Tampa Bay Bucs kicker Matt Bryant and his wife Melissa in honor of their 3-month-old son Matthew Tryson, who passed away in September of last year from SIDS.
