"First, let me say that it is an honor and privilege to know and work with such a talented young lady, as Josey," said Michael Stover of MTS Records. "We had such a strong feeling about 'Cowgirls' from the start. The track is just smokin', and Josey's vocal delivery was spot on. She took the fun, party message in the song and put her bubbly stamp on it. We're just thrilled that 'Cowgirls' is having such an impact at radio. Number One NMW? Top 80
Music Row? Unreal! We appreciate the support of country radio and fans, everywhere. Congratulations, Josey!"
