Fine traditional material as well as original songs… gorgeous harmony blend and musicianship.
-Lilli Kuzma, Folk Festival (WDCB Radio, Glen Ellyn, IL)
Comprised of Jennifer Ashley and Joel Simpson, Ashley & Simpson is quickly becoming a folk scene favorite. This local folk duo blends traditional songs and instrumentation along with beautiful vocal harmonies reminiscent of famous duos such as Ian & Sylvia and The Everly Brothers. Their February 2019 sophomore CD release Off To Here Land debuted as the #7 TOP ALBUM on the Folk Radio Charts, and Ashley & Simpson earned the distinction of #9 TOP ARTIST for the month!
Jennifer Ashley is a classically trained pianist, singer-songwriter, and guitarist. Joel Simpson is an accomplished musician, singer-songwriter, and producer. Together they are an irresistible duo; you will leave wanting more!
The ghosts of Doc Watson and Jerry Garcia are smiling. The rolling fingerpicking and sparse accompaniment serve these songs [on Off to Here Land] perfectly.
Sincere, thoughtful and well-played folk acoustic music.
– Jim Colbert, The Folk Show (WSPU, State College, PA)
