Dasha Breaks Ground as the Second Solo Female Country Artist to Reach Billions on Spotify
In a milestone that solidifies her status as one of country music's rising stars, Dasha has become just the second solo female artist to join Spotify's coveted Billions Club. This achievement marks another significant career breakthrough for the singer-songwriter, who is making waves in the industry with her unique blend of dance-infused country and empowering lyrics.
Dasha's breakthrough hit, "Austin (Boots Stop Workin')," has been a game-changer since its release two years ago. The song's success has catapulted Dasha to new heights, earning her not only a spot on Spotify's Billions Club but also an ACM Awards nomination for Best New Female Artist and appearances on notable TV shows such as Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve and the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade.
The singer-songwriter expressed immense gratitude and surprise at reaching this milestone. "I still can’t wrap my head around this," Dasha said in a statement, marveling that her debut single has become an anthem for many people. “Austin” changed my life, and now just two years after I put it out on my own … it’s officially hit a billion streams on Spotify.” She also acknowledged the inspiration she draws from fellow artist Taylor Swift, who was the first solo female country artist to join the Billions Club.
For Dasha, this achievement is not only a testament to her hard work but also a reminder of why she began making music in the first place. "All I’ve ever wanted is to make music that helps people feel like the strongest, most badass version of themselves," Dasha said. “Austin’ was written in pure rage, but it somehow turned into this beautiful source of community and empowerment."
