Ashleigh hales from the suburbs of Houston, TX where she began strumming “Puff the Magic Dragon” with her summer camp councilors when she was ten. She attended the Conservatory of Music in Cincinnati, OH and re-located to Hollywood after backpacking cross country on a greyhound bus. She incorporates these and other experiences of life and love in her spirited, melodic, rock infused folk songs. Ashleigh's crystal clear silvery voice and infectious positive energy keeps her devoted audiences rapt throughout each performance. Red guitar and harmonica in tow, she's a little bit country and a little bit rock and roll.
She plays throughout Southern California and appears regularly at Genghis Cohen in Hollywood.
