Ink: From Sidewalk Performer to Collaborating with Beyoncé - A Journey in Country Music
Ink, a rising star in the country music scene, is making waves with her debut EP, Big Buskin’. Hailing from Germany and raised in Atlanta, Ink caught the attention of none other than Beyoncé, with whom she has collaborated on two albums.

Starting her musical journey by performing on sidewalks and in front of venues, Ink's determination paid off when she found herself collaborating with Beyoncé. Her experiences in Nashville and the creation of Big Buskin’ are discussed in detail in an episode of Nashville Now, where she also hints at potential collaborations with Kacey Musgraves.
