My neighbor hired Ashley as the live music entertainment for a surprise birthday party. Ashley was so fun and talented and had a variety of songs she played with her acoustic guitar. As the night went on the party got more lively and Ashley was quickly able to adapt from coffee house tunes to full stop entertainment that had the crowd singing along and begging for more. We loved how Ashley was willing to also let take the stage and do some impromptu karaoke using her gear and impressive track list! We had so much fun.Since hearing Ashley live - Ive fallen more in love with her talent as an artist after checking out her website and Instagram account. Its full of industry education that helped me appreciate her value and talent even more! I highly recommend checking her out!I cant wait to hear Ashley again live soon and am looking for excuses to host a party myself just so we can get Ashley to come back and play!

Ashley was so much fun and easy to work with in prepping for my event. Ashley performed wonderfully on the night and all my guests were commenting on how great she was. I would definitely have her again.

Ashley sang at our dad’s celebration of life. It will be what people remember except hopefully our dad. She was perfect in every way. Ashley’s voice is exquisite. Absolutely exceptional. She showed up early; set up without needing any direction or help from us and sang exactly as discussed prior. It was wonderful because we were mourning our dad. One less thing to worry about. Ashley even brought an assistant so her performance went off without a single hitch. She learned 2 special songs in 2 days. And a 3rd that was a surprise. Seriously incredibly kind of her. The songs she sang struck the right tone for the ceremony. We really couldn’t have asked for more. I hope to use her again for a cheerier occasion. What a pro!

Ashley performed for our son's graduation back in 2023 and we re-hired her for our 2nd son's grad party in July 2025. She nailed it once again and the amount of guests who commented on her amazing singing voice was great to hear. Once again, her ability to sing songs from so many different genres was awesome. We stuck with more 80s-90s and 2000's style music and she made all the songs sound great. Sometimes she sings the songs just you remember it and sometimes with her own twist that makes them unique. Her demo video on Youtube is great...ask to see it and you'll be sold. Two thumbs up from us!" - Brian Mariani

Off The Charts Talented! Ashley played at a party we were having and not only were we impressed but the people attending kept talking about her. She is a true professional and intuitive performer.
Ashley tailored her performance to what the mood of the group was. If you are looking to add something really special to your event then booking Ashley is the way to go.
