 Rustie Blue, a Center Stage Productions recording artist, is gaining international popularity. With her ballad, “One Hot Summer Ago,” at the top of the European Country Music Charts, Blue’s unique approach to Country Music contributes to her global success.“One Hot Summer Ago,” written by Gilles Godard and Willie Mack, is a song that reminisces about a first love in its purest form and is the lead single off Blue’s album, Stronger Than Steel. Her third single, “Shape Up Heart,” written by Larry Wayne Clark and Sherry Garland, is climbing the Country HOTDISC Chart, currently holding the No. 4 position. “Shape Up Heart” will make its way to the U.S. radio this month. Gerry Ford of Country Music and Dance in Scotland said, “Her vocal is stronger and more forceful, and her delivery excellent.  The songs suit her raunchy style and with great guitars, fiddles, and steel it’s like listening to a female who is more like Gretchen than Dolly.”Since her first album, That Oughta Do It, Blue has experienced growth not only as a recording artist, but as an entertainer as well. Blue has appeared in several high-profile magazines, including Country Weekly and Music Row Magazine and has had four hit singles: “Shape Up Heart,” “One Hot Summer Ago,” “Chip Chip” (with Bill Anderson) and “Jones On the Jukebox.” She has won several awards, including the European CMA for Vocal Collaboration of the Year for her duet with Anderson and is currently nominated for Female Artist of the Year by Music Box France.
