Bio / Background
Ashleigh Flynn hails from Kentucky where she grew up foot stomping along the Ohio River as the steamboats and barges made their way to the muddy Mississippi. A songwriter of exceptional emotional depth and intelligence, Flynn is also an electrifying performer blessed with unbridled charisma and the voice of a fallen angel. She has released two CD's: Chockecherry (October 2002); Ashleigh Flynn self-titled (1999); both of which received great reviews and strong independent "off-the-stage" sales (2000+ each). Flynn is gearing up to release new live CD recorded to sold out crowd at PDX reputable listening venue: Mississippi Studios, with local instrumental band Sneakin' Out and featuring national folk star Tracy Grammer. Flynn is fixin' to bolster her touring career, which until now has focused primarily on Oregon.

Press Snippets:
"Ashleigh Flynn, Kentucky angel shines with national debut!" - Women Who Rock, May 2003
"A Kentucky girl with an adventurous sonic sensibility."
- Sing Out, Spring 2003
"There's a breathy ache in Ashleigh Flynn's husky voice. Flynn sprinkles her abum (Chokecherry) with peppy pop that's got an off-kilter slant to it. If "Isa" doesn't make you believe she's got it, "Don't You Believe" will."
- Santa Monica Mirror, January 2003
"As it is, Flynn is an amazing artist with immense talents - not the least her magnetic voice. This is an intense and convincing album that holds great promise for the future."
- Ink19, December 2002
"Singer Songwriter Ashleigh Flynn's vocals are the focus, make no mistake, but one of the joys of her new CD, ChokeCherry, is the intricate and unobtrusive production that acts as a setting for that jewel of a voice."
- The Oregonian, November 2002
"Ashleigh Flynn - a darling of the NW Americana scene... promoting her new CD, Chokecherry build upon her strengths of marrying styles such as bluegrass to pop, and instrumentation dobro to drum beats, she adds a smoky soulful voice and mournful doe eyes to the package..."
- Voice Choices, The Village Voice. Oct 16, 2003
