NASHVILLE , Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 16, 2013-- Aspiring singer-songwriter Daisy Mallory was treated to the surprise of a lifetime when award-winning country music duo Thompson Square selected her as a “Voice Worth Hearing” for their new multi-media campaign with Luden’s®, the soothing throat drop loved by voices everywhere.

Keifer and Shawna Thompson surprised Mallory at a rehearsal session in a Nashville recording studio. Mallory was under the impression that she was part of a new project featuring up and coming musicians like herself. The surprise didn’t end there, as Thompson Square then invited the 20-year-old to perform in a private show with them at The Wheel in Nashville, Tenn., the venue where Keifer and Shawna worked side-by-side as bartenders before signing to Stoney Creek Records.

“When somebody has a great voice, you know it within the first few seconds of the song because they make it their own,” said Keifer Thompson. “Shawna and I knew Daisy’s voice was worth hearing from the moment she sang. Her presence and ambition are well beyond her years, and we could not be more excited to share her talents with our fans as she continues in her career.”

Mallory started writing songs and playing the guitar at the age of nine and has been performing live since she was 12-years-old in her hometown of Cave Creek, Ariz. In 2010, Mallory moved to Nashville to pursue her passion for country music full-time.

"I am a huge fan of Thompson Square, and as you can imagine I was incredibly surprised when Keifer and Shawna walked into the studio,” said Mallory. “Knowing that they saw my video and chose me to be part of the ‘Voices Worth Hearing’ campaign was exciting and humbling. There are so many amazing voices out there, and I can’t believe they chose mine. I’m so grateful to Shawna, Keifer, Luden’s and everyone else who made this experience possible. It really is a once in a lifetime opportunity.”

Luden’s®, the soothing throat drop loved by voices everywhere, is partnering with country music duo Thompson Square on its “Voices Worth Hearing” campaign. Together, Luden’s® and Thompson Square will create exclusive new videos and other content celebrating voices worth hearing for Facebook and other digital channels, giving fans a unique peek behind the scenes of the music world. Luden’s® will release a video documenting Daisy’s rehearsals and performance with Thompson Square as part of the campaign.
