Ashley Anne and The Carnations

Ashley Anne and the Carnations did an amazing job. Ashley is a great singer. The band is super talented. They nailed the look and sound for our 1920s party we had. The cherry on top was the swing dance lesson they gave. Our guests were very impressed and highly entertained. They lined up to take pictures with Ashley. Big props to their manager, Aussie (I hope I got the name right), he communicated everything and was very accommodating to our needs. Ashley and Aussie even stayed and partied with us after the show. They are amazing dancers.

Boy, where do i start. I went a little long but urge you to read the whole story.
My grandma had recently passed away. She left quite the legacy and was a WWI veteran having served in the Army Air Corp doing USO shows to help sell war bonds doing shows with the likes of Tommy Dorsey, Glen Miller and Benny Goodman. I wanted to honor her and thought about having a singer at her military funeral. After a short search i came upon Ashley Ann and the Carnations and reached out.
Both Ashly and Asi were so professional. We had frequent communications as the date approached discussing the songs to sing and technical issues of the venue. As this was a veterans cemetery in Riverside (the busiest in the nation having a service every 30 minutes) we had time restraints and no power available. The two songs were "Georgia on my mind" and "The old rugged cross". The second song Ashly had to learn. She even had the accompanying music recorded for both songs to insure it was appropriate for the occasion rather than sounding like a karaoke sound track.
The day of the funeral was AMAZING!!!! They showed up dressed in authentic WWI uniforms and showed up early. Ashly looked absolutely beautiful. They worked with the cemetery to be set up and ready when the funeral presession arrived at the venue.
Again i cant say enough how amazing the service was. Ashly's voice and performance was the the most touching moment. A week later as i write this i am still getting calls and texts from family members thanking me for making the service so memorable with every one of them saying how much they loved her performance and meeting her after the ceremony.
I just cant say enough how great everything went. Ashley and Asi were not only true professionals but showed true interest in honoring my grandmas legacy and went above and beyond to ensure it was a day we would never forget and trust me i will never forget it!!!!
On behalf of the Hall family I THANK YOU Ashley Anne!!!!!

Ashley Anne and the Carnations will deliver more than you expect. Beyond the perfection of the band, they are happy to have audience involvement.
Couldn't ask for more.

I've had the treat to see Ashley Anne & the Carnations perform at least five or six times, and I also had the pleasure to be the DJ for the night at a couple different venues on the dates they performed! And they are always a joy. They keep the dance floor going with a fun and authentic vintage sound. Swing, 50s Rock and Roll, 60s Standards and more! Ashley is a beautiful and talented singer with a wide range of styles, and her band keeps the floor going! Their keyboard player is also incredibly great. As a DJ, it was also fun to see them, because they performed so many songs I liked and filled the place with positive energy!
