Ashley McBryde’s silent era, ‘9-1-1’ Nashville reveals cast | Music City Minute

Aug 13, 2025, 10:30 AM

If you happen to be out and about and run into Ashely McBryde, please don’t be offended if she doesn’t talk to you. The “One Night Standers” singer isn’t being standoffish, she’s actually on strict vocal rest. While the singer didn’t get into specifics, she did reveal the diagnosis was “busted up vocal cords.” Since McBryde’s regular form of communication is currently hindered, for now she is using notes and American sign language to express herself.
This October, ABC will be premiering at the latest installment of the popular show “9-1-1” with the new season based in Nashville. The principal cast is made up of Kimberly Williams-Paisley, LeAnn Rimes, Chris, O’Donnell and a major cameo right out of the gate. Kicking the show off a bang, Kane Brown will be featured as a heroic character with a major storyline in the first episode! With this new season based in Nashville, I wouldn’t be surprised if we saw more country music cameos.
I’m Sheena, and that’s your Music City Minute.
