Alex Ashley delights audiences with an amalgam of poignant storytelling, incendiary guitar playing, and honeyed vocals with a hint of smoke, compared to the likes of a "young Vince Gill," Chris Stapleton, and Jackson Browne. His polished dexterity with the audience makes every performance experiential; turning every "gig" into an event where the audience leaves with something special. This is true whether it is in a large theater, a small club, or a private event.

When Alex performs at private or corporate events, either he or MGMT will reach out to the contact person to confirm date, time, and other details, as well as parking and set-up area. He confirms as much info as possible to make arrival/setup as non-invasive to the event and staff as possible. He brings his own sound equipment so very little has to be done from the venue's side.
“Alex Ashley’s songwriting takes you inside yourself and then out, impressing the beauty and danger of the complex world we live in…” —NPR
Alex Ashley may hail from a small harbor town in the Pacific Northwest, but the sounds of Laurel Canyon, the Deep South, and the American Heartland collectively rush from him like a torrent.
Compared to Jackson Browne and “a young Vince Gill,” Ashley takes us on a sonic journey from the church house to the juke joint; an electrifying amalgam of poignant storytelling, incendiary guitar playing, and honeyed vocals with a hint of smoke.
The singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist has been invited to share the stage with legendary artists such as 23-time Grammy Award winner Vince Gill, Jethro Tull’s Martin Barre, Joe Pug, Tyler Hilton, Nashville icons The Time Jumpers, jazz crooner Nicolas King, JD Simo, and others.
For smaller performances, Alex can provide his own sound system and gear so the venue/planner does not have to provide anything other than a place to set up and a stool to sit on!

Alex performs original music combined with well chosen (non-cliche) covers performed in his own style. This combination always gets wonderful feedback from audiences and venues alike.
