Delaney Ramsdell is an artist and Grammy-nominated songwriter based in Nashville, TN. Originally from Roosevelt, Texas (population 18), her sound, songwriting and storytelling is steeped in the culture of West Texas.
Her newest single “285” tells the story of Texas oilfields and the road that runs through them - 285, the most dangerous highway in America.
“I have a deep tie to this place: my mom grew up on a gas camp near Coyanosa, Texas while my grandfather worked in oil & gas.”
“I tracked the song live with the band, trying to make it as raw & organic as possible. I started tearing up when we were recording-- it felt so real and visceral in the moment and points to the power of storytelling.”
A Grammy nominated songwriter, signed to One Riot Publishing & Reservoir Media, her cuts have amassed over 70 million streams to date with tracks including the Grammy-nominated “Make You Happy” (recorded by Lukas Nelson), “Thankful” (recorded by Paul Cauthen) and “East Texas and You” (recorded by Solon Holt).
Her songwriting portfolio spans artists the likes of Lola Kirke, Josh Abbott, Zoe Clark, Trey Pendley, Taylor Austin Dye, Ian Harrison, Aniston Pate, and more.
