Ashley Virginia - in the stillness I move outside of time (2024) [Hi-Res]

From Greensboro, North Carolina, Ashley Virginia is an artist who has gained attention for her unique songwriting style of introspective poetry and interesting harmonic structure. Her sound has been described as "raw, contemporary angst" by Americana Highways.
Like the spiritual daughter of Stevie Nicks and Paul McCartney, her style falls somewhere between '70s Country cool, West Coast cosmic Americana, and ‘60s Rock ‘n’ Roll. While attending a masterclass in Greensboro, 14-Grammy award winning songwriter, Emmylou Harris, categorized Ashley Virginia’s writing as “unique and unusual”. In 2021, she released her debut album, "and life just goes on living" tackling themes of mental health, healing, and social-political commentary.
Ashley’s second album, “the colors in my dreams” will be released on February 16th. This project was funded in part by the North Carolina Arts Council. Recorded in a historic farmhouse in Glendon, North Carolina, by Black Rabbit Audio, Ashley Virginia was joined by 15 different musical friends and collaborators. Together, they lived on the property for eight days to immerse themselves in the creative process. Rehearsals for the session were intentionally excluded beforehand. Rather, Ashley Virginia created and distributed charts and demo recordings, resulting in the collaborative and improvisational recordings that make up the album.
