We are all survivors of something, whether it’s a death in the family or health issues, and many of us let our pasts overpower our futures. But Ashley Foster is a survivor that doesn’t let her past hold her back, and she’s using her past to help and inspire people through her current job of running a childcare center. Oh, and she makes some pretty awesome music.
A Contemporary Sound
If it’s not hip-hop in Memphis, it’s the blues. Our city’s musical background inspired Ashley to create her own sound of contemporary music. She released her first single “Red Wine” in 2017, and since then has been creating “authentic (music) with a mellow deliverance contrasted by bold and empowering lyrics all in the same note.” The release of her single has sped her life up a bit, but that’s expected when you step into your destiny. Knowing that life can flash before your eyes, she keeps going at her fast pace to make the most of every minute.
The Avenue
Ashley had to find her own way of creating music without changing herself. She wants to leave a lasting trace that is great and unique at the end of the day. This is how she coined her production name, Ashley Avenue. Staying in her own lane and doing things how she wants and needs to is how she came up with her name. In her lane, you will find a raw passion for Memphis’s Grit and Grind. She doesn’t stop or slow down in her lane, so watch out.
