Ashley Jordan


*The LATEST REVIEWS on the new Liquid Words album are coming in . . .


January 4, 2012, New Classic Music for Tomorrow writes:

“Ashley Jordan’s Liquid Words is a CD that pulls the influences of country, folk and pop into a mesh of sounds that has a heartfelt honesty to it.  A new country sound that hints at the old music not played by many artists today...something that is not lost on Ashley. She employs the old traditional instruments, banjo, fiddle, pedal steel that hold true to some of the older country sounds. This gives the music warmth that is lost on many of the newer pop country artists who are losing touch with the roots of country without even realizing it . . ."

Oct., 2011 - Bill Copeland of Bill Copeland Music News writes:

“Ashley Jordan’s sophomore CD Liquid Words is a well-crafted country-folk-pop amalgamation. It works because Jordan successfully welds the roots of those music genres with the sheer beauty of her voice. Hers is the voice that remains sweet in its raw, unpretentiousness, one that holds up solidly among much gritty, roots-inflected instrumentation . . . Look for great things to come from Ashley Jordan in the years to come. And look far, because that is where she will go.”

“When I first saw Ashley play, I saw a young artist undaunted, charismatic, commanding the stage like a seasoned performer in the biggest arena. She pours herself into each song with such intensity and feeling, there is no question she is destined for greatness. Her lyrics flow freely, untainted and fresh, her voice and melody lines speak a truth that touches the very soul. That is rare indeed. It was my great fortune to produce her latest CD, “Liquid Words”.”

July, 2010, Brian M. Owens, Editor of METRONOME MAGAZINE wrote:

"What were you doing musically when you were seventeen years old? Never mind musically. What were you doing, period? Of all the artists I've ever interviewed, Ashley Jordan is one of the most focused people I've had the pleasure to talk to. This young lady is only a junior in high school, but already she's released a CD and is looking to build a future in the music business. I talked to this talented upstart one beautiful spring evening and she outlined her musical goals. If our conversation is any indication of her drive and determination, we can all plan on buying her albums in the near future."
