Album Notes

Ashley Jay is a vivacious 20 year-old from Moorpark, Ca. who has been dazzling the country world with her strong vocal talents from an early age.

Citing such country luminaries as Martina McBride and Faith Hill as her influences, Ashley certainly has the stuff to compete with those ladies as she makes her way to the top. By the time she signed her deal with Mad Dog Records in January, she had already performed with Freddy Fender, Charlie Daniels and other mainstays of the country scene.

Since signing with Mad Dog Records, Ashley has had the pleasure of performing on the same stage as Collin Raye and Billy Ray Cyrus. She has been featured at ACMA-nominated Montana's in San Dimas, CA, the House of Blues in Anaheim, CA and at the famous Baked Potato in Hollywood, CA. She has also performed at concerts by pop sensations 98 Degrees, to the delight of their young audience. She has toured Europe to sold-out crowds in the UK and her single, "Make It Hurt" charted at #1 on the independent country music charts in Europe.

She had the pleasure of opening for Diamond Rio and she recently returned from the East Coast where she performed at several Tim McGraw shows at the request of Clear Channel Entertainment (formerly SFX Entertainment).

Aside from her musical accomplishments, Ashley is also an active member of the community through her involvement with the DARE drug-resistance program in schools. She has taken that anti-drug message with her throughout the United States and into Europe, where she has taken the stage to sold out venues in England and Scotland, including the world-famous Borderline club in London, England.

Currently, Ashley is set to start her senior year at Moorpark High School, where she maintains a respectable GPA.

Ashley is booked through Mountain High Entertainment in Rancho Cucamonga, CA (909) 980-8900. Press questions can be directed to Michael Scafuto at Mad Dog Records (909) 481-1025. More information is available online at www.maddogrecords.net.
