Ashley Alford

Written by Daniel Stad

Toronto native Ashley Alford has been capturing audiences with her electrifying stage presence and star-like qualities since she was 15 years old. Originally on the path to a career in opera, the 24-year-old artist has since lent her soulful, yet natural, vocal range and technique to the world of Country-Rock.

The first single from her upcoming self-titled album, called "Beautiful Feeling", was the result of eight years of growing into a refined and experienced recording artist. Featuring Ashley's passionate vocals and an enduring melody, the song is already being acclaimed as one of the best works since Jewel first hit the music scene. It was released during the summer of 2005 in Walmarts all across Canada and sold 50,000 copies in total!

Ashley is set to release her full self-titled album in the fall of 2008 to both radio stations and music store shelves all across Canada. Everyone else better make way for this incredible performer to break free and make some serious noise on the Canadian Country music scene! Ashley is proud to announce that as of January 1, 2007, she and the rest of her musical team will be in the studios hard at work producing her upcoming self-titled album, set for release the following spring of 2008.
