Beyond Nashville, Payton has taken her music to audiences across Europe, performing in Denmark, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, Ireland, and the Faroe Islands. She was also honored to perform at the inaugural Nashville Nights Festival in Odense, Denmark, helping bring the spirit of Music City to fans across the Atlantic.
