“Too Good To Go” by Shari Rowe came when she needed it most.

Shari Rowe, who started out singing Christian Church songs, has transitioned to a beautiful country artist. As someone who grew up in Arizona, she has always had a special heart for country music. While needing a place to escape from so many uncertainties of her health, she wrote “Too Good To Go,” which started out as a poem. At one point, doctors explained her symptoms as a serious blood cancer, Multiple Myeloma. Later on, she got the diagnosis of Eosinophilic Fasciitis, an autoimmune disease. Even though Eosinophilic is less life-threatening, she still had a lot of fear around her during this time. Mixing soundings like early 2000s Miranda Lambert and more recent Megan Moroney, “Too Good To Go” has an amazing mix of melodies and storytelling. There is a sadder mood and impression within this song. However, it is an amazing example of how precious your life is. “Too Good To Go” is a song that captivates your attention; you’ll want to listen to it over and over again. Each time, it will make you think of something even more special in your own life. You’ll be able to appreciate the surrounding things in your life after you give it a listen. “Too Good To Go” isn’t Shari Rowes’ only song. She also has a couple of EPs, with lots of good stories inside them. Her “Night Like This” EP has a bunch of upper beat traditional country sounds. While her EP “Moonshine” has a lot of slower beats, it still keeps the happier tones. If you’re looking for a mix of '90s and early 2000s country with a modern twist, Shari Rowe is your girl. She has melodies and beats for every mood you're in. No matter if you’re happy, sad, excited, reflecting on memories, or in a different mood altogether, she has a song for it.
