Country duo The Shires is comprised of singer/songwriters Crissie Rhodes (lead vocals) and Ben Earle (harmony vocals, piano, guitar). They formed the group in 2013 and released their debut album Brave two years later and became the first UK-based country act to break into the Top 10. Sophomore record My Universe dropped in 2016 and was the fastest-selling UK country album. The first two releases would both be certified gold and preceded the silver-selling LP Accidentally on Purpose (2018) plus further titles Good Years (2020) and 10 Year Plan (2022).


Artist Bio

The Shires unites Crissie Rhodes who cut her teeth playing various pubs, clubs and weddings with Ben Earle who had previously found some success as a solo artist. Earle had been writing for ten years previous to meeting Rhodes through Facebook having looking for a partner with a post entitled “There must be a country singer somewhere” to which she responded.

The pair’s first single was entitled Nashville Grey Skies and was released in 2014. It was immediately picked up Bob Harris and received prominent airplay on his BBC Radio 2 Country Show. The song takes influence from the epicentre of country Nashville and blends styles from both Britain and America. The song was featured on their debut album named Brave. Released in 2015, the album rose to #10 in the UK album charts and has subsequently been certified Silver.

Their rise to the top has certainly not gone unnoticed having won Horizon Act Of The Year at the 2014 British Country Music Association awards. Then, in the following year they took home Album Of The Year and Entertainer Of The Year at the same awards, with Earle singled out for Male Vocalist Of The Year.
