Jared Ashley Leaves Station Strong!

By Country Music Tattle Tale He went from Navy singer to Lower Broadway to Nashville Star, but luckily for us, Jared Ashley is now going mainstream! After placing 5th on the reality show in 2006, Jared Ashley took to the road to perfect his live performances and songwriting skills. In 2010 the singer/songwriter went to the studio and released an album without help from a label. With a self-financed album, Jared earned recognition from Blaster Records that eventually signed him among acts like Montogery Gentry, Chuck Wicks, James Otto and

Jack Ingram.

Currently in the studio with an album expected by the end of the year, Jared Ashley has released "Last Train To Memphis" to country radio. The song is a co-write with Nick Sturms and Jeremy McComb. Jared's vocals are impeccable on the track and reminiscent to me of a blend between Kip Moore and JT Hodges - yeah, he has the best of both rasp and ease to his voice! This is one of those artists that could sing just about anything and I would listen.
