Come Into Love

A Song Of Hope And Realirty
In 1999, Ashley ditched Corporate America for the romance of Southern Californias surf and sun. Ashley not only became entrenched in the surf culture but he also began an intense love affair with music. The South African-born artist, who first picked up a guitar at the age of 19, emerged from San Diegos music scene in January 2005 with his much-acclaimed debut album Twelve Days in January. Ashley has been described by critics and the media as having an unforgettable voice and hook-laden songs, while his album has been called a deceptively ingenious melodic modern rock debut. Ashleys diverse musical influences include Pink Floyd, John Lennon, Neil Finn of Crowded House, Matthew Sweet, Smashing Pumpkins, Neil Young, Mozart, and British alternative pop band Travis. Ashley, who has played in clubs throughout Southern California, has delighted his fans with his rich melodies, arresting vocals and genuine lyrics, with songs such as Come Into Love, Life So Ordinary, and LA. In January 2005, Ashley over drafted his bank account to enter Come Into Love in a Best Rock Song contest sponsored by VH-1s Save the Music Foundation. Ashley, who only had $30 to his name at the time, scored the top slot and was entered into the Song of the Year contest. Ashley has played with noted artists such as John Mayer, Jason Mraz, the Gin Blossoms, Etta James, Evan Dando of the Lemonheads, and Maria McKee. Ashley, who put himself through college by playing his guitar in the subways of Toronto, has been featured on numerous Southern California radio and TV shows. Ashleys music will also hit the airwaves during a handful of MTV reality shows next season, including The O.C., Laguna Beach, and The Real World, as well as in a UPN series called Upscale TV, which will begin in January 2006. Ashleys much anticipated tour is expected to kick off in early 2006
