Country Artist Kimberly Dawn, affectionately known as “Coastal Cowgirl.” has released her new single, “In Love with Tennessee” . Dividing her time between Los Angeles, CA, and Nashville, TN, Kimberly reflects deeply on the inspiration behind this song. She shares, “The song emerged from the emotional conflict I felt, torn between my longing to be in Nashville and the necessity of maintaining my original home in California. Every departure from Nashville was heartbreaking, even though I missed my family in California. Having roots now in both places, I enjoy the best of both worlds without choosing.” You can listen to the single here.
