Details:
Jasmine Ash is a singer/ songwriter from Portland, Oregon whose effortless charisma and soft, intimate voice have made her a favorite of the local scene as well as garnering interest from the record industry. Meredith Brooks writes: "Jasmine Ash can do it all, she writes, she can sing, and she's a performer...exactly what the music
biz needs today." Jasmine's second CD entitled "From
Grey to Blue" is an exciting departure from her previous acoustic work, and shows a level of complexity and maturity well beyond her twenty-three years. Released on May 14th, 2004, the album has already begun to receive rave reviews. "...Catchy and beautiful...a feathery voice that wanders between cajolingly childlike and pristine." (kxl.com) "Her vocals have a memorable quality that is only destined to get more so." (Andre Hagestadt) "Jasmine Ash is the next big thing to come out of Portland" (The Oregonian).
The CD was produced by the local production team of Ezra
Holbrook and Sean Norton, whose previous credits include The American Girls, Camaro Hair, Little Sue, Assisted Living, Charm Particles, and a host of others. The Band that plays on both the CD and in concert has an impressive resume of it's own. Singer/songwriter and former Trauma
Recording artist Aaron Masonek plays bass. Jason Henry, current member of the Portland rock band The Bella Fayes, plays guitar. Ezra Holbrook, producer and former drummer
for Geffen Records band The Loved, as well as for the Decemberists, and current drummer for Little Sue, lends his talents on drums. The group is rounded out by former
Trauma Recording artist Gus Baum on keyboards. It is an all star cast of local musicians who recognize that Jasmine has barely scratched the surface of a promising career. Playing in Portland for less than two years, Jasmine has already managed to perform at almost every venue, and has played shows with popular local bands
as well as touring acts. She recently returned from a three week tour of the west coast, and has been getting airplay on local radio stations. Her CD release has been a fitting culmination to a year that has been exciting, gratifying, and full of potential. In other words: "Jasmine Ash is ready for the Big Time." (The Two Louies Magazine)
