It’s no secret I’m one of those “will travel for shows” type of music fans. If an artist I love is performing within five hours of Jacksonville, I’ll be there. Because I live in Jacksonville, we often get passed over for some big tours (that’s another blog for a later time, maybe), so I’m pretty … Continue reading
I have a pretty bad case of insomnia a few times a week, so occasionally I’ll scroll through Spotify and browse the charts and different playlists for new artists. Honestly, clicking on random things in Spotify or YouTube are the BEST ways to find new stuff to add to your playlists because the possibilities are … Continue reading
My name is Ashley and I have insanely talented friends. I met Justin Wysong via Instagram in 2014 (yes, things like that often happen to me) when mutual friends liked and reposted some of his photos. A few months later, we happened to be at the same concert in Tampa and became fast friends. Justin … Continue reading
If you look through my iPod at most played albums/songs, you’ll notice a good mix of genres from classic rock to hip-hop and the occasional country hit, but there’s always one artist that pops up on EVERY playlist I have, and that artist is Ed Sheeran. I met and interviewed Ed back in 2012 at my … Continue reading
By now it’s no surprise I LOVE going to concerts, and you can tell by my social media posts that I’ve been blessed with amazing friends who give me once-in-a-lifetime experiences I will cherish forever. It isn’t very often that I’m able to go above and beyond just having a +1 at a show with … Continue reading
One thing is for sure– SUMMER IS UPON US! On top of all the amazing tours happening (check out my calendar for more on that!) during the summer time, this is one season that consistently brings out such a diverse playlist, and who doesn’t love jamming out with the windows rolled down and the stereo … Continue reading
NEVER underestimate the power of making an impression on someone…even if you have no idea they’re watching you. That’s exactly what happened with Mary Lambert, but thankfully it was a good impression and gave us something to laugh about. I was also excited that her awesome tour manager, Autumn, gave me a little tidbit about … Continue reading
You NEVER know who will come through the red carpet at Jingle Ball, but this was BY FAR the best surprise. “Orange is the New Black” is one of the biggest shows out and the whole room started buzzing when the gorgeous Dascha Polanco stepped into the room. For more photos and footage from Jingle … Continue reading
Prince Royce– what a cutie!! His latest single “Stuck on a Feeling” is all over the radio right now and it’s been stuck in my head for weeks, but I’m not mad about it. I’ll let you in on something about Jingle Ball: You NEVER know who will stop by the red carpet. I’ll … Continue reading
One of my favorite things about Jingle Ball is meeting artists no one has heard from yet. Natalie La Rose was soaking it all in and still had that “I can’t believe I’m here” look in her eye. She has Flo Rida on her side though, so I’m not worried about her getting adjusted to … Continue reading
