"In the House" at the Grinder House is broadcast live on WFMC Jams every Friday from 6-8pm central.
A small-town girl with a big-time faith whose talent, look and voice conjures up memories of a young Carrie Underwood, Ava currently finds herself on the cusp of country music stardom.
And for good reason.
The 22-year-old with the fresh sound and addicting spirit likes to say she was born to play music. Her grandfather plays the guitar, her parents once served as worship leaders and everyone around her sings…. everyone. In fact, as a little girl, Ava would sing so much that her mom often found herself politely asking her talented daughter to stop, for even just a moment, so they could sit down at the table and at least enjoy a dinner together in peace.

Ava’s current single, “He’s Like a Habit,” brings with it a playful energy and an undeniable spunk that will soon infuse the country music industry with a youthful spirit not seen since the early days of Taylor Swift. And the song with the infectious hook also reminds us that, despite the weight of an ongoing pandemic, it’s still fun to be young and there is still fun to be had.
And Ava wants the world to feel that fun again.
