It's all about the girls!

Country star Kelsea Ballerini plays the latest sounds from Nashville and beyond with weekly mood-boosting, inspirational mixtapes - this week it's all about the girls!

Kelsea's here with another feel good mix of music, and this time it's all about the girls! An hour of girls with guitars, from Dolly Parton right up to Cassadee Pope, Elle King and Gabby Barrett.

And she's got a ton of stories from the life of a country queen along the way, including how watching country videos helped Kelsea break into the business when she first moved to Nashville, the best song to sing at karaoke and how best friend Carly Pearce helped her cope in the days when success seemed so far away for both of them!

Kelsea Ballerini is recognised as one of the most influential women in country music today, and she joins Radio 2 and Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Sounds fresh off the back of her sixth No. 1 single in the US.

She released two acclaimed albums in lockdown last year and has consistently made history since the start of her career. She is the only female country artist to hit No. 1 with the first three consecutive singles from a debut album. She has platinum and gold album certifications, a career total of 12 gold and platinum singles certifications and has accumulated total streams exceeding two billion to date.

Kelsea has garnered two Grammy Award nominations, won two ACM Awards and has received multiple career nominations from the ACM Awards, American Music Awards, CMA Awards, CMT Awards and the People’s Choice Awards. She has also been welcomed as the Grand Ole Opry's youngest current member. Kelsea additionally collaborated with the Chainsmokers to produce the huge dancefloor hit, This Feeling, and also appeared at Radio 2’s Festival In A Day in Hyde Park and the C2C Festival in London, Glasgow and Dublin.
