Just when you thought you couldn’t love Ashley McBryde any more than you already do, she just keeps showing us how sweet she is!
Somehow between touring, releasing a new album, and being nominated for multiple CMA Awards, she’s still had time recently to work on learning a new language. She’s been spending what free time she has recently learning American Sign Language, which she put to good use at a recent show in a moment that’s been going viral.
“I love to learn as much as I can, but I can only learn so much, retain and practice so much because there’s not people to practice with,” she explains.
McBryde got to practice and flash those ASL skills at a recent show of hers. McBryde brought a young fan named Charlee on stage, who was in the crowd and wanted to meet the singer. Charlee is hearing abled, but McBryde used this opportunity to sign to Charlee’s mother and ask if it was okay to put Charlee on the microphone and ask her some questions.
Fans of McBryde were quick to comment on the video, with nothing but praise for what McBryde did. One fan writes, “I love that she asked the mom if it was ok that she come up.” Another fan points out, “That fact she knows ASL is amazing!”
McBryde would like to make signing a larger part of her shows moving forward as she learns and retains more and more of the language. She has and will always continue to strive to make each and every one of her shows inclusive for everyone.
And that’s just one reason why we love her!
